Hi !
Richard Allen (COG) rang me this avro Fri 2
Oct saying he had spotted a Grey Plover at the Narrawallee
Inlet near Mollymook/Ulladulla. Knowing that Richard is a new chum
in the birdo world and inexperienced in the knowledge of bird identification I
thought I'd pop over to check. I quickly removed any doubt that he may have had,
and that it was indeed a Grey Plover. The mans unreal, as we're
hurrying over to see G. Plover he casually looks up and sees a greyish
silhouette 300mtrs away flying towards us and IDs it as a Square-Tailed
Kite immediately. It was him that found the
Spectacled Warbler immediately at Yatteyattah NR that took me an hour
to catch a glimpse of the last time I seen him down here. Isn't he
lucky that he can call me to confirm them!!! Not only that, he
thinks that the seal that he seen earlier at the inlet could have been a
Leopard seal. This is possibly the same one that has been hanging around for app
3 wks now. Seemingly it had been attacked by a Cookie Cutter Shark
according to the Parks & Wildlife people and has been lying up until
the wound heals over.
Cheers
Bob Rusk
