Later in the day (about 1230) we were 2/3rd the way up Mt Tennant and a small flock flew off to the East.

Harvey,  Which way were your HEs flying on Red Hill,  on Sunday?  Where would you expect to see them next?  We were at Jerrabomberra, near Lindsay's place about midday on Sunday.  We only stayed about 15 minutes as it started to rain.  We saw no HEs.  We live in Griffith, almost directly east of the gap between the hills on Red Hill.  We have not seen any HEs flying over our place.  Geoffrey, a little to the south of us, but higher, has not reported HEs flying over his place, or maybe he has.  I think that HEs have been reported flying through Callum Brae, but not a lot

How come Martin is seeing HEs flying on a dull cloudy day?  They are supposed to fly only when the sun is shining.  It is very dull today.  Perhaps there are more flying above the clouds.  Any other reports of HEs flying today?
