Rey, the left bird looks indeed like a Pacific Swallow to me (95% sure, I need to see the underpart to make it 100%). But the right one is positively a Striated Swallow ( Hirundo striolata). Ref: Is this a lifebird to you?

Yes definitely a lifer for me. Didn't notice the difference. Thanks a lot Mastah. Here's another image of the striated swallow showing the undersides. Sorry don't have one for the other swallow.

Paraphrasing Forrest Gump: Birding is like a box of chocolates, one never knows what one can get. Ask Neon, he shoots first at any birdlike object, and just ask questions later, on his desktop. ;D
