Hi List & Michael Tarburton, Between 11:50 am & 12:05 pm I counted 43 White-throated Needletails at Willoughby St, Epping NSW, -33.776347,151.067244. They were flying North-east quite high, circling around in rapid sweeps. The occasional bird flew much lower, maybe 10 metres from the ground. The temperature was 30C and humid, still & oppressive with storms expected. This is my first local sighting this season.
