Hello All,
For anyone with an interest, below is the list of birds seen during a 3
hour survey of the Caloundra sandbanks last Thursday. We also saw three
flagged or banded terns. Two marked Caspians have been seen several times
this winter (as I have remarked before, I can't prove that they are the same
individuals, but have little doubt), and one Crested.
Cheers,
Jill
