The most recent sighting n Jersey was at Victoria Tower on Tuesday. ‘Pallid swifts don’t migrate in the way common swifts do in winter. ‘The light in November isn’t very good at times, and you need to be able to see them well to distinguish them from common swifts. ‘In good light you can see lots of mottling on the breast, which you don’t get with common swifts which are normally fairly plain.
