Hello all,
              Post cyclone Jacob Christmas Island.  Thousands of fallen trees 
and many of the minor roads still closed.  Some interesting birds about, 
including:

  WHITE WAGTAIL - seen and photographed at the rubbish tip for three days. 
Often being stalked by cats - now gone.

  ORIENTAL HOBBY - originally seen by Mike Carter, Grant Penrhyn and Colin 
Judkin during their visit but views were too brief to ID it.  It was later seen 
by myself and 9 others at the rubbish tip hunting pigeons.  We observed it one 
morning hit a Christmas Island Imperial Pigeon in flight and knock it off 
course.  The pigeon escaped.

  Regards
  Richard Baxter
