Stromlo Forest Park

I have had a couple of forays to SFP in the past couple of months and found no Chats.  

Looking at eBird records for SFP the Chats were recorded 3 times in early January  - presumably folk getting their year-lists off to a good start - but not since then.   Another example of the value of the eBird approach!

With all the excitement at the Arboretum, I’ve been wondering if the White-fronted Chats are still at Stromlo Forest Park.

 

A 70 minute search this morning in their usual places in the open areas around the car parks etc failed to find them (or for that matter Flame Robins or even Pipits/Skylarks) despite the excellent viewing conditions  The main activity was more than 75 Yellow-tailed Black-Cockatoos with still some begging young in the reveg? between the facility and the building sites.

 

Has anyone seen the chats there lately – they could still be present but there now seems to be much more typical habitat for them.
