Although it's still winter, there are signs of new season breeding activity, 
including:
 
Saturday 21 July, a fully constructed noisy miner nest in the Campbell Park 
carpark.  A noisy miner was in attendance though I doubt that there are any 
eggs present.  I looked up a couple of Canberra bird books, and it seems that 
July is unusually early for noisy miners nests here.  Maybe a reliable food 
source from the nearby picnic tables is the reason for this! 

Sunday 22 July, 5 small cygnets and parents at Belconnen Golf Course (pond near 
5th tee).

Cheers
Tony
