Yes - from a distance - so blurry. By the time I had popped home to exchange my clubs for a camera, the birds had moved from above the clubhouse to a little further inland. Happy to share a few images if I knew how to send attachments! It was nice to see cirl bunting feeding while I was looking out for the needletail too.

A few shots, with apologies for the quality, but they were a little way off and moving fast.

That's so impressive. Fantastic spotting you! There must be a lot of Aussie vagrants coming over in the predominantly NW winds of late.

I have checked the kina cliff road this morning and no sign but a few swallows.
