Last weekend, I heard the unmistakeable baritone buzzing of a big, brown
blowfly in the kitchen - a definite sign of spring in southern Australia!
More importantly, Shining Bronze, Horsfields and Fantailed Cuckoos are here
(no Pallids yet), and Olive-backed Orioles, Black-faced Cuckoo-shrikes and
Fairy Martins have also arrived.  Still no Sacred Kingfishers along the
Yarra (or I have missed them).  It's a great time of year.

Cheers

Ian
