Hi!
My twitching down here has been mainly out to sea
and along the seashore since the coming of winter. The main sightings have been
the many albatrosses and shearwaters,including a wandering albatross. Yesterday
afternoon though on my way to the lookout at Warden Head I heard on the news
that a pod of Killer Whales had been sighted on the far south coast. At about
4.45pm at app 4klm out I sighted what I believe to be at least 2 of them. They
were harrassing another whales,( humpbacks?) and whether any had a
calf I couldn't tell but I watched the chase heading towards Jervis Bay until
darkness stopped me,what happened after that I don't know. Also last week at
Lake Tabourie entrance in the middle of the day, in the open, with absolutley no
cover whatsoever, there was a single Night Bittern paddling around the shallows.
Ive been back a couple of times to no avail, maybe choosing the wrong times as
I've been there early morning and on dusk.
cheers
Bob Rusk
