Obviously prefers pre-packed mozzie take-away, rather than catching
them individually. Be interesting to see if the behaviour is fairly
common at that spot.

Hello all,
I just witnessed a Welcome Swallow catch a Mosquito Fish (Gambusia)
from Mars Creek, Macquarie University, Sydney. The fish were swimming
at the surface in a small pond in the rather dry creek, the bird
plucked one out and flew quite low over me with its quarry dangling
out of its beak.
An amazing site! And very unusual for (usually) strict insectivore!
Regards,
Mr Kurtis Lindsay
