I am tempted to quote from "My Fair Lady" and say  "in Spine, where the rine minely falls".   

 

My blog post is a little more helpful as it starts by specifying the Hoskinstown Plain - one of my usual haunts, but I should have spelt it out in the body of the chatline post.

 

Mea culpa, mea culpa.

With a friend I visited a couple of pivate properties on the Plain this morning and racked up 37 species with 6 breeding records.  Highlights were a good supply of White-browed Woodswallows, White-winged Trillers and Rufous Songlarks and finding a nest-with-eggs of Black-fronted Dotterel in a very risky position beside a driveway.  Some more expansive words and a few images on my blog..
