As a new subscriber to birding-aus this is my
first attempt at information gathering. I will be in Sydney (from Perth) late
next week and would appreciate some local help/knowledge with the
following:
- Any recent sightings of Plum-headed Finch in the Capertee
Valley area? I will be spending at least one night there - my second visit
to the area. (I read that Chris Gladwin saw 8 at Glen Alice on the 18th
April.)
- Known/possible whereabouts of Swift Parrot either within a
day trip from Sydney or en route Capertee. I have been given fairly recent
sightings at Bolero Ave, Greystanes and Moorbank Ave, Holsworthy - are they
still possibilities?
- Is it too much to hope that the day roost for Powerful Owl
mentioned in Thomas & Thomas is still being used? If not, does anyone
know of a current roost for them?
Here's hoping!!
Patricia Todd.
