Winter Black-Cockatoos, Melbourne (Vict.)

["michael norris" <>]

Me too!  Today I saw the species on my home patch, Bayside City, for the
first time.

That was a single bird heading east over Ricketts Point at the end of a
lovely bird walk with a good variety of small bush birds, and on Beaumaris
Bay some penguins in the flat calm and, far out and sometimes disappearing 
in the mist, about 200 probable Fluttering Shearwaters.
Can anyone confirm the shearwaters being around the east of Port Phillip Bay
at the moment?

And how about a white Grey Goshawk in south-east Melbourne around last
Friday? Ok it might have been a distant cockie but the flight looked all
wrong.
