Several have remarked on the late and as yet low numbers of Pied Imperial
Pigeons reaching parts of Queensland.

Just saw 11 Pied Imperial Pigeons heading over the Papua New Guinea Savanna
towards Cape York, so it they are still up here they cannot be in
Queensland yet.  It has been an unusual weather pattern this year.  The
first half of the dry was unusually wet, and so we really had a late dry,
which could have delayed the birds.

Hope they reach you.
