This morning there was a male Red-capped Robin, fully coloured at
Penrice Saltfields near Adelaide.   It was perched on saltbush along the
eastern track about 2 km from the St Kilda Road gate and later seen
flying to the ground after insects in the vicinity of a small flock of
White-fronted Chats.

during the afternoon of the 2nd of April while I was ploughing a paddock
at Penfield near Edinburgh Airbase there was a female Red-capped Robin
flitting about but it soon disappeared move off to the east.

Both of these sightings are about 25 km on the north side of Adelaide.
