Subject	[canberrabirds] A south coast question

Hi all,
 
This is a question for all the COGies who
spend time on the South Coast, especially north of Batemans Bay and south
of Ulladulla – what is the status of the Common Myna in the area? The
reason I ask is that I saw one fly across the road about 5km ‘north’
of East Lynne on Sunday. The area, which doesn’t appear to have a name
farm wise, is through a very obvious cleared area where the highway (going
north) drops down a slope on a long right sweeping bend before crossing
a bridge then heading uphill, still turning right, to the forest where
it then swings left to the left. Hopefully people who know this part of
the highway will recognise the description. Also, what is the distribution
of the Little Friarbird in the general area? I was surprised to see one
at the Lake Conjola Caravan Park on Sunday morning before the rain hit.
 
Many thanks,
 
Mark
