Gooday birding aussers, I observed 15-20 Ft Swifts with my daughter Camilla travelling in a NW direction over Muralug Beach, Prince of Wales Is. Torres Strait, Qld. Date 10 Jan. 2013 Time 18.40. Clear sky no sign of clouds or wet weather, no wind or breeze, very still conditions. Low tide. They did not seem to be feeding but continued in a Northerly direction.

G’day Jon
Thank you very much for sharing this observation from Torres Strait. The numbers are well down on the birds you saw feeding there back in 2000. But at least you did give us some info – the few museum skins and historical records do not tell us much.
Cheers to all & Happy birding
Mike
