We went to Callum Brae yesterday.  The removal of the fences has been  
done very well and makes a huge difference to the appearance of the  
reserve.  However, birds were scarce.  We did not see any small  
birds, except a willie wagtail  This was quite different from this  
time last year when we saw many small birds.  There was a flock (how  
many birds make a flock?) of magpie larks, about 20, feeding on the  
ground with about 5 starlings, and magpies, crested pigeons, noisy  
miners,  crimson and eastern rosellas, galahs, and ravens.  Very  
disappointing.
