Jenny, good number in north Queensland but I would not say more than normal
variation. That said, I have noted some larger flocks of more than six
birds.

Subject: Spangled Drongo in Sydney this season
Hi List,
Normally when Spangled Drongo are passing through Sydney I make an extra
effort to go to likely patches of bush and usually manage 1 or 2 sightings.
This year however I have seen 19 Spangled Drongo [some of which may be
repeat sightings of the same bird on consecutive days], all at Galaringi
Reserve, Carlingford [10] and Sydney Olympic Park [9]. I have also seen many
more reports on Birdline than I recall from other years.
Is Sydney seeing an unexpected influx of Spangled Drongo this year? If so
are there more about this year or is somewhere else missing their usual
Spangled Drongos?
