Hi! Philip.
Your comments regarding the CBCs would be OK if it
was early in the season, but these birds have been heard or seen at least
once a day for months. It could be that the Grey Goshawk or some other
raptor,unseen by me, has put in a fleeting appearance while the CBC is
present thus giving me the impression it's them causing the
panic. The CBCs do most of the time arrive unheralded,
quietly hopping and gliding from tree to tree,usually at mid tree
level and could easily pass overhead un-noticed. They do
look quite sinister, sneaking through the foliage, peering in all directions
before progressing to the next tree and repeating the same.
Dimitris, regarding the
Topknots, there was flock 40/50 strong up Lake Conjola way on 28/12 so they
ar still around.
Cheers
Bob Rusk
