Breeds from the Andaman Islands east through Indonesia and northern Australia
The white-breasted woodswallow is a medium-sized passerine that breeds from the Andaman Islands east through Indonesia and northern Australia. The name woodswallow is a misnomer, as they are not closely related to true swallows: they belong to the family Artamidae, which also includes butcherbirds, currawongs and the Australian magpie (Wikipedia, general species account).
