Re: RE: [canberrabirds] Honeyeaters moving over Murrumbidgee Golf Course

I don't know what species I saw yesterday, but there were about 30 - 40 going east around 2 pm over Mt Taylor. Could have been YFHE, size wise and they chip-chipped.

I estimate about 60 birds over the 3^rd  fairway at 10am.  The largest group was about 30 birds.

Also hearing them over my GBS yesterday and today.

Was away from home all morning but at lunch time several flocks of YFHE passed over Jerrabomberra, the largest of about 40 birds.

I've just been to a little unnamed woodland area off Namatjira Drive in Fisher, and there were many small groups (5-20 per group) of YFHEs flying over and "chip-chipping" as they went. Heading away from the river towards Mt Taylor

Flocks of YFHEs moving east over my place all morning. Up to 35-40 birds at a time, but more often in groups of 5-10. Based on what I’ve seen so far, numbers are definitely up on previous years.
