Hi all,
As mentioned previously I saw
Fork-tailed Swifts passing over Adelaide last Thurs 31 March ( 2 birds at West
Beach). Hot north winds persisted until a westerly change late Sat evening.
Fri 01 April yielded
25+ Swifts between 8.00 & 9.15am, then Saturday about 100 between 6.30
(sunrise) & 9.45am, and a further 30 or so between 4.30 &
6.20pm (6 after sunset at 6.05pm). Most birds were fairly low and moving
generally east, while a few were higher and 'floating' slowly north.
No Needletails identified. These sightings from home at Novar Gardens.
North winds may return later
this week (?).
John T.
