Imagine my surprise while stopping along the Moruya River yesterday to stretch my legs by a beautiful lake I noticed some unusual woodswallows flying beside the lake shore. I had never seen them before, but upon getting closer realised they were White-breasted Woodswallows. I counted some 6 adults and a juvenile. They were plenty of Tree Martins and Dollarbirds around too. This came as a complete shock to me as I thought these birds werent normally found further east than Wagga Wagga and further south than the NSW Central Coast? I would appreciate any comments anyone has regarding this sighting in this location and whether it is really unusual. If so would the Eurobodalla NHS be interested in the sighting? Cheers Marnix |
