I was at the ANBG this morning (Sunday about 10.30 am) and observed a tight, biggish, mixed flock of Woodswallows flying high over (probably 200+ metres high). First heard them and fortunately they passed almost straight over, going in the direction of Black Mountain. It was clearly a mixed flock but looked like about 50 Masked and 30 White-browed Woodswallows. (A reversal of the usual ratio, though it wasn't an easy count to reach.)
