Dear birders

Walking home at 9.30 am this morning from King Street,
Newtown (Sydney) down a back lane, heard and then
found an adult and 3 immature Figbirds testing the
still unripe fruit in a large mulberry overhanging the
lane (some fruit at the top was starting to colour
up). Only one bird had the red eyepatch - the others
were decidedly immatures with one being very vocal and
pestering the adult.

Off to Barren Grounds this weekend - great spot for
spring birds and flowers.
