Leaden Flycatchers

[Birdline ACT <>]

Jack (and Philip),

I too was surprised by the comment. Please see the following two screen dumps from Eremaea. 

I don't see the point of proselytising Eremaea's virtues to the Canberra birds audience, but this is the sort of thing that this system does so well.

Jack, please consider Eremaea as a resource when writing your interesting piece for Gang Gang. I would be very happy  to show you or to help you collect the data.

Regards

Alastair

Subject: [canberrabirds] Leaden Flycatchers

I opened the November Gang-gang today I noted Jack's comment about:

"and surprisingly only a single report to date of Leaden Flycatcher. My impression is that these species, particularly the latter, seem so far to be here in lower numbers than in previous years."

I don't know when that was written but my recollection (I don't have the data sheets) was that I had a pair or more of Leaden Flycatchers in several of the sites that I did on the Blitz weekend. That seemed unremarkable and not worthy of writing about, it goes in the survey results where it can be considered as part of the whole, which is the best way.

 

Also I note that the "Leaden Flycatcher" on the label of Julian's photo (page 6) is a Restless Flycatcher.
