I can recall seeing one on a fuel barge at Spotswood a few years back (next to Yarraville along the river). Otherwise just the odd one at Queenscliff, Werribee, etc. They mostly seem to occur as widely spaced individuals around here; quite uncommon. This one must be overwintering too. -- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ LAWRIE CONOLE 3 Gezireh Street, Pascoe Vale South Victoria 3044 AUSTRALIA. 37°44'27"S 144°56'17"E Phone (03) 9354 2484; Mobile (0419) 588 993 E-mail: <> NOTE: MY NEW E-MAIL ADDRESS <> FROM 18/4/2000 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ To unsubscribe from this list, please send a message to Include ONLY "unsubscribe birding-aus" in the message body (without the quotes) |
