I have been following the Spangled Drongo 'to'ing
and 'fro'ing with interest as it is one of my favourite birds. We
live at Nundah in Brisbane about 3 km from Moreton Bay. We are probably
less than 20 km south of the Redcliffe Peninsula. Last year I diligently
kept records from February as part of Pete Woodall's Garden Bird
count.
Here are my details (with minimum and maximum
numbers per week of SD's for each period):
