Hello Jenny,
I viewed this outing on the field trips program with great interest. Kay
Hahne's recent conversation with me about her trip to Africa in search of
Raptors has given me a keen desire to look for some a little closer to home
after my recent sightings of some at The Rock.
The modest trip along the fire trail doesn't sound too onerous. However,
what about children? Are there any coming or not? I have an enormous 4 year
old who I usually end up carrying on my back. I have carried him to Mt
Ainslie summit and back several times, but it is a slow process. Before I
book can you fill me in on what sort of group will you have on the trip? I
want to gauge know if I can keep up!!!

Subject: [canberrabirds] COG Bus Trip - Sun 23 July - Molonglo Valley Birds
of Prey
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2006 15:43:35 +1000
Greetings: We still have seats on the bus for this tour around the
Molonglo Valley to look for birds of prey. A good opportunity to search
for the (becoming rare) Little Eagle, Peregrine Falcon and Wedge-tailed
Eagle etc, as well as learn about the proposed urban development in the
Valley. A variety of other birds should also be seen. Cost for the bus
will be in the range $17-20 pp depending on number. A second bus will be
hired if we have the numbers. There will be some walking so you need to be
sure footed: the Woodstock Nature Reserve, at Shepherd's lookout near Holt
(short loop down and back up) and near Uriarra Crossing (approx 4.5km along
a fire trail - fairly easy with some ups and downs), plus other stops on
the way. Need to bring lunch and drinks for the day, wet weather gear if
rain is expected. Finish at 4pm. Full details in COG Newsletter
Ganggang.
To book a seat, reply to this email. I will confirm the exact meeting
point later on: 8.30am at Coolemon Court Shopping Centre in Weston Creek -
plenty of parking.
cheers
Jenny
