The Pacific swift (Apus pacificus) is a bird that breeds in eastern Asia. This swift is strongly migratory, spending the
northern hemisphere's winter in a wide range of habitats in Southeast Asia and Australia. The general shape and blackish plumage
recall its relative, the common swift, from which it is distinguished by a white rump band and heavily marked underparts. Its
main call is a screech typical of its family. It breeds in sheltered locations such as caves and rock crevices, or under the eaves
of houses. The nest is a half-cup of dry grass and other fine material that is gathered in flight, cemented with saliva and
attached to a vertical surface. Two or three white eggs are incubated for about seventeen days before hatching. Like all swifts
the Pacific swift feeds exclusively on insects caught in flight. The species has a large population that occurs as far afield as the
US and New Zealand, and rarely in Europe. (Full article...) The Pacific swift (Apus pacificus) is a bird that breeds in eastern Asia. This swift is strongly migratory, spending the
