Looks like one of each to me.

Just to balance the equation a little, I counted 4 swifts over the Pinnacle NR yesterday morning, and all were W-t Needletails as far as I could see. Having watched Fork-tails a few days ago, I was struck by how much larger the Needletails are.

A highlight of my GBS count this morning was a flock of 15 Fork-tailed Swifts hawking over our patch.  Rough phots for ID below.
