    1. Reviewed by Michael Frankis    Mar 16, 2008

    Action: changed name from "Riparia riparia" to "Petrochelidon pyrrhonota "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "Nest structure matches Petrochelidon pyrrhonota, not Riparia riparia (which digs holes in sand banks)"

    2. Reviewed by Carlos Alvarado    Jun 17, 2008

    Action: changed name from "Petrochelidon pyrrhonota" to "Cliff Swallow "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The "notes" section (Notes: There were numerous Bank Swallow nests along the building. The parents were flying in constantly) should also be updated to Cliff Swallow since it still comes up when searching for Bank Swallow."
