Two seen this morning , perched in dead trees overlooking the Molonglo
River just downstream from the concrete crossing. Further upstream from
the crossing there was a small communal roost of Darters, Great
Cormorants and a lone Little Pied Cormorant, including a Darter nest
with 4 young ones being fed by a male adult bird, and a Great Cormorant
nest with three young which appeared to be begging but were being
ignored by the three adults present. There were, at a conservative
estimate, at least 20 Darters flying in the river corridor and soaring
very high up. Another bird which I haven't seen for a while was a White
plumed Honeyeater at Stromlo Cottage.
Cheers
Rod
