Reading all these messages about Pacific Swifts, I happened to look out my window and there they were flitting around the rooftops of Civic. I haven't seen this species before and I'm pretty sure it's the first lifer I've ever recorded from the comfort of my
home!

6 Pacific Swifts have been flying over Hughes between 9-10 this morning too.
Crazy how many flocks have been seen in the last two weeks, before this year I had only seen Pacific Swifts once in the ACT in the last 24 years!
