Hi, Today after work I took a walk around Lake Tuggeranong and was surprised to encounter the same family of 5 WWC foraging at one of their favorite haunts, Reed Street S, under the bridge (=Soward Way). They had disappeared since end Dec last year when I was diligently looking for them in Jan. The young is now almost indistinguishable from other adult family members. Kind regards, TunPin Ong

This afternoon, to my surprise, there were 6 Choughs in
the street outside my Weston house, foraging on crushed acorns (from
several Oak trees planted on neighbours nature strips).
There were a couple of young birds in the group. This is the first time
Ive recorded Choughs in my GBS for 10 years (last in winter 2002). Later I
saw a couple of them moving east from tree to tree towards the green strip
between Oakey Hill and and Mt Taylor (about 350 metres away). Has
anyone had Choughs foraging similarly in their suburb away from the green
strips?
