Fw: ANBG birds

["Mark Clayton" <>]

Tony,

 

I would say you have it pretty well correct. My answer is Y-t B C- no, they breed in the wetter and taller forests, Grey Currawong – yes (or at least very close to the ANBG. I have seen nests close by on Black Mountain), SB-C – yes, B-F C-s – yes, Bassian Thrush – no, they are principally a winter visitor to the ANBG but breeds in the higher, wetter Ranges.

 

Cheers,

Mark

Can anyone help with this query from the ANBG?

 

My guess is N, Y, ?, Y , N, but if N then where?

‘’Hi Tony

 

 

Wondering if you can assist with a bird enquiry

 

 

Do you know if any of the following birds nest in the ANBG.

 

    Yellow-tailed black cockatoo

    Grey currawong

    Shining bronze cuckoo

    Black-faced cuckoo-shrike

    Bassian thrush

 

 

We are wanting to include this information in the Gardens’ bird app.

 

If the following birds don’t breed in the Gardens then where do they breed ie, suburbs, mountains. woodland reserves, river bank.”
