There was one in the 'Sydney' area last week. Sorry, don't know the Section number because our overseas visitors took all the leaflets away with them!!

Howdy All,

Not sure whether this is of note or not, but at 8am this morning when weeding in section 4 (below the rockery area) we were visited by a pair of yellow robins. A workmate there said that they were common but that they haven't seen them in quite a while and had thought they'd moved somewhere else, so I don't know whether ours are migratory or not (books say that some are migratory and others aren't). I'd never seen them before so I was rather pleased, particularly as they were totally unphased by having us there weeding and at times were happily foraging within a metre of so from me. The rest of the day was spent with White-browed Scrubwrens, Eastern Spinebills and the like following along behind us as we weeded and picking up insects. Altogether a lovely way to spend a day. <grin>

Cheers.
