Nesting material. Remarks: I spotted a sizeable number of Glossy Swiftlets collecting nesting material from Livistona chinensis palms. They would fly in swiftly, sharply turn and snatch with the beak at fiber from dead parts of the palm; pulling strongly away if successful. Success rates for attempts were ~ 40%. I have previously reported similar behaviour for Peninsular Malaysia, see: Amar-Singh HSS. Glossy Swiftlet Collocalia esculenta stealing nesting material from Baya Weaver Ploceus philippinus nests in Perak, Malaysia. BirdingASIA 16 Dec 2011. - Amar. Date added to OBI: May 20, 2016.
