It was a unique privilege to have several Swift Parrots spend a few days feeding in the Ironbarks in our street this week. Swift Parrots are not only gorgeous, but incredibly rare, with only 2000 individuals remaining in the wild. Swift parrots migrate over 1000km from their breeding grounds in Tasmania to feed on nectar throughout southeastern Australia.
A swift above my garden. (Sorry about the blur, but the clue's in the name—these things are bloody FAST.)

Possibly a mixture of White Throated Needletails and Fork Tailed Swifts. All flocked together and flying ahead of an approaching storm front. I don't have time to count them yet. From Maramingo Fire Lookout Tower.
The swift is a medium-sized aerial bird, which is a superb flier. It evens sleeps on the wing! It has a plain sooty brown body ........
Swift Parrots are endangered in all states and nationally; it's estimated there are around 1000 breeding pairs remaining with no sign of recovery in numbers yet. They migrate from their breeding grounds in Tasmania to the mainland each year and some pass Canberra around May and September. Sometimes we manage to see them here if they decide to use the suburbs as a staging post, tending to hang around feeding for a week or two in the same area before resuming their journey.
It will be interesting to see if the excellent rainfall in the last year leads to an increase in numbers.
This bunch were noticed by Matthew in the ironbarks planted in urban carparks at Tuggeranong. I finally got to catch up with them 10 days later -- this day there were only moulting immature birds to be seen. This is one, beautiful of course but not the most photogenic at this moulting stage. Notice the claw on the leaf, I saw some hanging only by leaves.

This is the dam where the old gate valve resides that is shown in the next picture. It is on the Swift River dividing Belchertown from Palmer several miles below the Quabbin reservoir.
Those old tenement building must have been built long before waterfront property became desirable.

As dusk fell, the swifts would swirl around the stacks in huge flocks and fly out against the moon.

The former home of meatpacking magnate Gustavus Swift at 4510 S. Michigan Ave. also housed the Chicago Urban League before it moved next door in the 1970s. The current home of the Inner City Youth and Adult Foundation was constructed in 1892.
NOTE: The building, which had been put up for sale in 2017, suffered significant damage from two fires in December 2023.
