After reading of the lack of breeding records of
Mistletoebirds in the lovely new edition of Birds of Canberra Gardens I was
determined to get a record. I know they have bred around here for some years but
so do the currawongs. Although I have a reasonable idea of where the birds do
have a nest I waited until the fledging time and kept a look out.
This morning I heard them caling again. There are 2
young complete with orange gape & bill. I have now seen them 3 times. This
last time gave a very good view
