Watling gives the following note : " This bird, about half the 

 natural size, seems to possess, in a great measure, the qualities of 

 a Swallow. Its motions are amazing quick, eager of its prey, 

 which it seizes with the rapidity of lightning. Its favourite 

 food is a large locust, which at this season is plentiful. It is 

 strongly pounced (as a bird of prey), and has a broad flat bill- - 

 the tail quills armed with spikes as sharp as a needle."
