Richard Baxter reports rarities from Christmas Island

Richard’s latest tour to CI is only 3 days old yet already he reports Schrenck’s Bittern (photos provided), Black-nest Swiftlet, Asian House Martins, Asian Koels, Peregrine Falcon photographed, lots of Wagtails, waders, swifts etc. I think the Bittern is the first live record. Also a strange pigeon/dove photographed but not identified.
