Hi All
 
On a short visit to Toomulla Beach to the north of Townsville yesterday we observed a continuous stream of Drongos flying north in a five minute period we counted c80 birds and they kept coming.
 
We also spotted a pair of White-browed Woodswallows one juv. & one adult, this is my first sighting of this species east of the Great Divide.
 
Regards

To a man ornithologists are tall, slender, and bearded, so
that they can stand motionless for hours, imitating kindly
trees, as they watch for birds.
