To add to Michael's email; there was a large number of White Throated Needletails over the Anglesea Heath on Saturday.

They seemed to be in every part of the sky you looked at, making it hard to  estimate numbers, but it would have to be well into the thousands.

In response to Dick's email below, White-throated Needletails have also
been in the Aireys Inlet-Anglesea area (Vic) since Thrusday last week.
Numbers are steadily increasing with larger flocks being seen each day.
First time they have been seen this summer.

'Hi Mike and Swift Followers,

Around 180 White-throated Needletails at home this  morning around 8 A.M.
Still no Fork-tailed Swifts as were seen in Sydney. One  day !'
