Birding trip advice - Eden/Mallacoota

["Rob Geraghty via Canberrabirds " <>]

Hi Ben,

I took this video from the Cape three years ago, on a day when a storm had generated a huge swell. There was quite a lot of pelagic birds to be seen. I visited again more recently on a calm day and there were very few, so it depends on the conditions. You can see quite a few species in the heath and forest near the lighthouse. Others from COG have had a lot more experience in the area than me, so I'd be curious to hear their thoughts. We stayed in Eden.

Good mornikng, 

I am planning a birding road trip south of Eden over the coming weeks and am seeking advice as to specifically Green Cape and Mallacoota.  I am looking at the eBird hotspots.  But would greatly appreciate some first hand understanding, as I have never been there myself, let alone birded there.  

Cheers, Ben
