Woodswallows on high

Last week we were busy doing some house painting. At one point we needed to have a short break so we made a cuppa and sat relaxing on our front veranda. After a few minutes I heard a familiar sound.

“Woodswallows!”

I could hear them calling but couldn’t see them.  Eventually about a dozen or so appeared high in the sky. Even with binoculars I couldn’t determine which species of woodswallow they were. They were possibly Dusky Woodswallows; this species has been reported in the district in recent days.

Always a nice species to see.

Or hear in this case.
