We need a field guide to Canberra birdos!
I try to remember to introduce myself to
other birdos if I run into them. I reckon it’s a good idea to make
yourself known if you meet others in the field.
It was good to finally meet a few folks at
Kellys Swamp the other day after
several years of reading their names and emails on this list.

Does anyone have a list of birdos identified online
thro' this forum?
Five
minutes later a Spotless Crake was spotted and later a Buff-banded Rail at
dusk.
Looks
like all 5 rails and crakes have been acccounted for this weekend at Kelly's.
ps
where is the fallen willow and gully where the Lewin's Rail frequents.
cheers

But I can confirm that Homo sapiens has been correctly identified (although the
sub-species remains unclear in case of the dark specimen): from left Jochen
Brocks, Peter Wynn (visiting from Lancaster uni) and Kim Sterelny
(and a father and son who's name I didn't catch). We were observing
a Baillon's crake.

Ray,
Your leadens are in fact
juvenile welcome swallows.
