With regard to Phillip's observations of Ibis
overhead was in Goulburn (Bedfordville to be exact) this A.M. where I saw what
N.Americans would describe as "skeins" of black and white birds passing
overhead. 150+ Straw-necked Ibis (not Canada Geese as first stumbled into my
mind...hey it was early). Four different V-formations passed by heading S
towards Canberra. Wondering if this is a response to the very windy weather we
have been having in the prior days or a more seasonal stimulus given the bright
colours of the wattles breaking out below?
Cheers
Shaun
