User's notes
Approximately 15 swift parrots here for over an hour, at times chased by noisy miners and magpie larks. Apologies for poor quality of photo - will upload sound recording. Swift parrots have been sighted consistently in this area for the past few weeks, and are in a similar area where I saw them around this time last year.
