Hi Chris,
Not too far away from you, in Centennial Park, WBSW are occasionally seen and
heard in the understory between the two Mission Fields. I have only seen single
birds and rarely, so they must fly in from elsewhere and move on. Have not
heard of them anywhere else in the park.
Kind regards,
Anne
