Large flocks of YRT around here – Percival Hill and adjacent Ginninderra creek. Also several groups separate from the flocks and feeding young. Some young this morning in my GBS site.

Subject: Re: [canberrabirds] Unseasonal breeding?
At the ponds near Kingston Foreshore last Thursday (10th August) I watched a pair of Yellow Rumped Thornbills apparently feeding young. They went on several occasions from parts of the little
park to a specific part of a nearby tall tree not carrying nesting material and on one occasion, when quite close to me, carrying an insect. I had no binoculars with me and couldn’t spot a nest so I cannot be absolutely sure that there was a nest or young.
