Three swifts over Pearce at 9.40 a.m. appeared to be WTN, but views were not very good.

23 Fork-tailed Swifts over Turner between 10.43 and 10.50.

Around 5 were feeding near/under a cloud band when a further 18 arrived
from the South and also commenced feeding.

Not sure where they went.

Attached image shows both forked tail and diagnostic scalloping.

regards
