Last week I had guests aboard who had recently taken a barramundi
fishing expedition from Horn Island in Torres Strait southwards along
western CapeYork to the Skardon River. They fished in most of the
streams and daily they encountered the problem of Rainbow Bee-eaters
chasing fishing flies being cast for Barramundi and Saratoga.
Apparently there were many times that there was a danger of a hook
up with the birds, however this didn't eventuate. Currently in the Wet
Tropics there are many bee-eaters returning from Papua/New Guinea to breed.
It has been an unseasonably warm winter and many smaller species of
birds here are breeding earlier than usual.
