Hi all,
While
camping at North Head (Murrimurang NP, just north of Batemans) we saw a family group of Glossy Blacks (3) on
Thursday morning and then right in the campground on Friday a Spangled Drongo
which we all enjoyed as it alternately perched and hawked for insects for about
10 minutes; having rather slipped in my dedication to birding recently didn’t
have binos to see its “Spangles” but it had
a very developed forked tail so presumably was an adult. I was surprised to see the species so
late in the year.
Beautiful
beach too with numbers of gannets, 4 sea eagles (the variation in sizes was
really marked) and 1 single whistling kite.
Cheers,
Peter
Miller
