My first Dollarbird for the season

[Helen Cross via Canberrabirds <>]

I saw 2 Dollarbirds up near the western side of McQuoids Hill, Kambah, on 8 October, and saw Rainbow Bee-eaters between Kambah Pool and Casuarina Sands on Sunday. Records added to CNM.

Cheers

Just saw the first of "my" dollarbirds, back for the season. In the trees bordering the 6th fairway at Murrumbidgee golf course (Gleneagles, Kambah). 

Right on time. Previous years (over past 12 years) have been as early as 12 October and as late as 2 November (but of course that is when I first recorded them, not necessarily when they actually arrived back).
