I found this morning that Campbell Park north of the 'horse-gate' fence is closed. There's a notice to explain that the closure is so unexploded ordinance can be searched for and that this closure has been "extended" to 21 January 2012.

In other words this closure has been in place for some time.

So why hasn't someone noted this on Canberrabirds before now? I would have thought that someone could have done this already to alert birders to divert to other spots, especially as CP is such a prime birding sitet.

In the bit of the Park I could walk in this morning I spotted Leaden Flycatcher, White-winged Triller and a Sparrowhawk spectacularly chasing Noisy Miners. I could hardly miss the large nos of Red Wattlebirds and Noisy Friarbirds attracted to the Yellow Box flowering.
