South Coast [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Hi

Further to Bob's earlier sightings I
caught up with a Black Bittern at Narrawallee Inlet on 16th and 17th july.
Brett also got some video of a White-fronted
Tern not to mention the Origma and Olive Whistler on Pigeon House.
I dipped on sighting the bob ruskus
 for which I apologise and will catchup next time.

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
