Hi all,
On 8 March, about 10.30am, an outing from the BOCA camp at Alexandra a large
'swarm' of 'hunderds' of White-throated Needletails were seen high (most were
invisible to the naked eye) above McKenzie Reserve just south of Alexandra,
GPS reading 37° 12' 42"E 145° 43' 5"S. Some in the group of about 30 observers
also saw some Fork-tailed Swifts. Welcome Swallows and Tree Martins were also
in the same area but much lower. Clear blue sky, light breeze, overcast earlier
in day.
Barry
