Hi,
 On the morning of Sun Mar 11 this year, with dark clouds overhead, a party of 
at least 6 w/t needletails operated over my home at Southern Caringbah, 
feasting on abundant insects being swept up from a flowering Sydney Blue Gum 
opposite my house. Tree martins had been feasting on the insects just around 
the canopy, everyday of the flowering.
I didn't get to carefully check for the max number of n/t's, as I had to go out 
for the day.
Regards
Bruce Roubin
