Swallow species?

Having seen the near-total lack of wildlife pictures from Costa Rica, I decided to upload some of my own.

Lake Arenal lies at the foot of the Arenal volcano, and is the largest lake in Costa Rica. It is largely man made as part of a hydroelectric project.

A pair of these swallows were flitting around our boat as we waited for the clouds to clear around the volcano (they never did).

Going back a bit I know but based on the white rump I would say these are Mangrove Swallows, Tachycineta albilinea. :)
