Re: Uriarra junction

Hi,

Rosemary Blemmings sent the following email to Marnix and myself. It seems likely to me that this would be the same pair that nested there at exactly this time last year. Interesting, and worth keeping an eye on. Thanks, Rosemary.

Greetings!

 

I was at the junction of Uriarra & Coppins Crossing roads this morning at 11am and so was a pair of White fronted chats.

 

They were quite unconcerned at the parked car, flying between the top fence wire & the unkempt grass many times. They also perched in that small, & still-leafed oak tree on the Bike-tracks area side. They flew across the road several times & also down into the bike-track area on the edges of the 4-5m wide rough/earth surface.

 

I wonder if it's possible to keep the grasses scruffy this year so they can have a less traumatic breeding season?

I'll leave it to you to post this on the email line if this is the first recent sighting.
