Talk:Rock martin

Important
We’re not going to say anything about the air speed velocity of an unladen Rock Martin? We’re just going to let that go, huh? The Reader1969 (talk) 21:33, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

The range map File:Ptyonoprognefuligula3.png is sourced (using three sources from 1989, 1998, and 2002) but quite different from the 2016 IUCN map. The main differences are:
 * Nigeria,
 * Chad
 * Ethiopia
 * Kenya
 * Gabon
 * Congo

About these countries, our article says:
 * "The rock martin breeds in suitable habitat in Africa north to Nigeria, Chad and Ethiopia. It is largely resident apart from local movements or a descent to lower altitudes after breeding. This species has been recorded as a vagrant in Gabon, and its status in Congo is uncertain.[1][15][16]"
 * "In 1975, one of the first findings of the tick Argas (A.) africolumbae was in a nest of Ptyonoprogne f. fusciventris in Kenya,"
 * We have a 1908 source for "Mali to western Sudan and most of Ethiopia."
 * A 1933 source for "Southern Sudan and Ethiopia south to northern Mozambique."
 * A 1923 source for "West and central Africa."

So should we keep the current map? A455bcd9 (talk) 11:26, 10 December 2022 (UTC)
