Hi All

Mornington Peninsula Bird Observers today (10/12/03) visited the Somers Waste Water Ponds (Postcode 3927) - access is resticted. Weather warm and windy. Forty two species recorded with highlights being all the ducks you would expect to find in our area - Blue-billed Duck, Musk Duck, Aust. Shelduck, Aust.Wood Duck, Pacific Black Duck, Aust. Shoveller, Grey Teal, Chestnut Teal, Pink-eared Duck and Hardhead. Only Freckled Duck missing and you don't expect this species too often. Others included Great-crested Grebe, fairly unusual. Our total for the site is 62 species.
