Australian or Chillagoe Swiftlet
Aerodramus [terraereginae or chillagoensis] (= Aerodramus terraereginae) (Ramsay, EP 1875)
The Australian swiftlet is a small bird belonging to the genus Aerodramus in the swift family, Apodidae. It is endemic to Queensland in north-eastern Australia. It was formerly included in the white-rumped swiftlet but is now commonly treated as a separate species. It has two subspecies which are occasionally regarded as two separate species: A. t. terraereginae and A. t. chillagoensis. Source: Wikipedia
