How many species of dump chook are there in Australia?

Hi Laurie,

We have Pelicans at the South Grafton Waste facility, north coast NSW, as
well and of course Torresian Crows and Australian Magpies.

Regards

It was fascinating to see Aus Pelicans filling the role of dump chook at a
landfill [presumably around Melbourne] on this week’s episode of the War on
Waste.

The dominant dump chooks in SEQ are white ibis.  In other places, Silver
Gulls, the local corvids and Black Kites are the mainstays.  In Weipa, Pied
Herons filled the role.

How many other species of dump chook are there in Australia?

Regards, Laurie.
