Darwin Bird Report

Subject: Darwin Bird Report
From:
Date: Sun, 1 Dec 1996 11:05:09 +0000
Current notable sightings:
Little Ringed Plover (1),  Knuckey's Lagoon - 30 November
Garganey ( still only max of 2),  Knuckey's lagoon - 30 November
Yellow Wagtail ( 6+),  Darwin Sewage Ponds - 25 November
Barn Swallow (2), 30 November
Letter-winged Kite (6+), Middle Point - 24 November; it's of interest 
to see just how long this group will be around. Their numbers have 
fluctuated considerably over the years they have been there and 
presumably they will disappear. At the moment though they are easily 
twitchable.
Other interesting records are late Cattle Egrets, Australian 
Pratincoles and Bee-eaters, all of which would normally have moved 
out by now.
