Hi All, 

Back to the birds, hopefully!

At Avalon Airport today I noticed a Banded Lapwing with 2 recently 
fledged chicks. I have only seen them once at the Western 
Treatment Plant so far and they are no longer nesting in the old 
haunts that they used in the late 80s.

Also saw 6 Cape Barren Geese feeding off the side of the road near 
the Avalon Speedway, are these birds from Serendip, as per the 
Brolgas?

Happy twitching or birding, 

Paul
