Observation details
2 seen first near the educational centre and another 6 flying in a dip between the salvation army and the quarry. Noticeably smaller than the other swiftlets, very dark above, more pointed wings, clear white belly. Seemed to fly faster than the others (almost impossible to get the camera on them) more direct flight with less flying upwards and 'stalling' to catch insects. Flight seemed to be more round and round in circuits rather than the more random routes of the others. Reminded me of the Glossy Swiftlets in Bukit Tinggi which flew round and round the hotel.
