# 1 from left to right is a Barn Swallow, then maybe a Tree Swallow, then 2 Tree Swallows.
# 2 are Cliff Swallows. The tail and wing are the same length and not nearly long enough to be a Barn Swallow nor is it pointy tipped and deeply forked like a Barn Swallow.

I see #2 as juvie Barn Swallows. Cliff Swallows would have squared off tails, not forked like these two.

[spookyjimjams]

Ok, I'll concede only on the condition that they are juveniles that haven't grown a normal deeply forked tail. I do see the dark v-neck collar of a Barn Swallow.

Any guesses on #5
