Re: Sydney Crimson Chats

[Gordon and Pam Cain <>]

My son and I went to Sydney park in the drizzle yesterday for my first 
ever twitch (I'm a casual birder) because we were in the area.
No crimson chats were sighted, but we did pick up three other firsts for 
us: nutmeg manikins (lovely!) -- a flok of 10 or so landed on the grass, 
ducks -- blue bills, says my son, but hardheads say I. The photos will 
answer when I upload them. I think for once I'm right and he's wrong on 
an ID, as they had stripey back sections, not solid brown. And a plover 
of some sort -- again, we'll have to upload and study the photos. It too 
was beautiful.
Take care and happy birding
