My guess would be that the population is possibly no longer considered self-sustaining. When you visit Northam Weir they don't strike you as being particularly "wild"
Cheers,

Why would the Mute Swan be affected by the revised taxonomy? I would assume its taxonomic classification is not being changed.

Assuming that I don't lose Mute Swan, on the info you provide, the new C & B would give me 7 ticks taking me to 799! So no 800 birders in Australia just yet! But with trips to Torres Strait and Ashmore Reef in October, and the possibility of one more twitch this year, I'd be disappointed if I wasn't there by 2008! To see Barbary Dove, get Mike Norris, doyen of Bayside birds, Melbourne, to show you a nest with a sitting bird when next he finds one before he destroys it!
