An astonishing record of Arctic Tern in the Victorian High Country

["Mike Carter" <>]

Via Bill Ramsay, I've just received photographs taken by Geoffrey Vincent of 
an Arctic Tern feeding on a bitumen road at Cheshunt, NE of Mansfield on the 
northern slopes of the Great Dividing Range, Victoria, on 26 September. It 
was standing on the road picking up earthworms stranded there following 
heavy rain!! The occurrence away from the ocean or coast is remarkable; the 
behaviour astonishing. But we have had much wild weather.
