Hi
Tonya,
Nesting at ANBG is a quite different thing from them nesting in
people's gardens in the suburbs. ANBG is a very large area of great habitat, so
I'd suggest that is hardly unusual there. That is different from suburban
gardens. Both Martin and I were referring to GBS data, which as far as I
know has never included ANBG (though some sites have included ANU). I will admit
that is not exactly what Chris' original question was asking. That just asked
about Canberra, not GBS.
Even
so, neither Martin or I suggested it was a "rarity". Another example of
misunderstanding of perception words - the point I was
making.
Philip
-----Original Message----- I had no idea that
spinebills nesting was a rarity, as they're common in the ANBG throughout the
year; I've found 3 nests this year there (last one with chicks a couple months
ago; I could check my records if it's of interest). Should have followed
them more closely!From: Tonya Haff [ Sent: Wednesday, 22 December 2010 10:17 PM To: Philip Veerman Cc: martin butterfield; Christine Ledger; Subject: Re: [canberrabirds] Eastern Spinebills Cheers, Tonya On Wed, Dec 22, 2010 at 1:42 PM, Philip Veerman <>
