I saw a fruit bat last night in Scullin - I think someone mentioned some
around Belconnen a week or so ago.  But the Mynas haven't left any figs for
it.

We have had a very good crop of figs this year.  The birds have not
been very interested.  Usually there are silver eyes and currawongs.
We caught 28 indian mynas lin late January/early February.  The
presence of our cat, sitting, waiting, in the tree may discourage
small birds.  There has been no sign of bats.

An oriole was outside our window on Monday morning and we have seen
bower birds birds occasionally.
