Hi Birders,
Edwin Vella asked about the Varied Triller
sightings on the Central Coast. There are still no Varied Triller records for
the Sydney Region (County of Cumberland) and only two records for the Central
Coast viz Umina garden August 1991 and the one at the Everglades Golf Course
(Woy Woy) on 3 November 2000 and heard over several days.
Further north they are regular at Harrington and
have been recorded at Wallis Lake. On 3 October 1996 two were recorded at
Copeland Tops, and in 1998 one was at Copeland SF 25 January (Hunter Bird
Reports). This may indicate a slight shift southwards, so Edwin should keep
looking to be the first person to get one in Sydney.
