That's a tough question. There's different types of swallows.
Barn Swallow
Purple Martin is actually a swllow
Tree Swallow
American Cliff Swallow
Northern Rough Winged Swallow
There's more......like lots more. The really cool ones and faster ones hail from Africa.
Generally speaking, about 24 miles per hour is a good estimate though of the two fastest swallows.
I am fond of the Connecticut Warbler. Lovely bird.
