Looks like Great-crested Grebes have has very successful breeeding
season/s.

116 at Price, SA is an impressive number
-
In the last two weeks I have seens 6 at Penrice Saltfields just North of
Adelaide and 3 at Goolwa near the mouth of the Murray River in SA.
GCB at Penrice are not unusual, I have seen up to 56 there, but it
is the first time I have seen them at Goolwa.

Trevor Hampel also reported GCBs on the Murray near Murray Bridge, SA on
Oct 22.

Hi All, a remarkable influx of Great-crested Grebes
currently at Penrice
Saltfields. We counted 116 in two groups this morning. There are usually
a
few there, and on Wednesday last there were 28, which is a lot, but
116 is
incredible.
