Dear all,
Just a quick note.
Birds this am at home (1.5 acres on the Burnett
River
in Bundaberg City)..........
Spectacled Monarch....3rd home record...exactly the
same
corresponding day of the first sighting in 1995
Black-faced Monarch....also 3rd record for
home
Rufous Fantail...first for the season
here
White-browed Scrub-wren....7 or 8 ...2 family
groups...largest number
at one time at home
Gerygones;Mangrove and White-throated
Honeyeaters;Lewins,Mangrove,White-throated,Brown,Little Friar,Noisy
Friar
Blue-faced
Kingfishers;Sacred and Mangrove
Plus 25 others.
It seems the weather is changing at last to give us
a little rain
from the very dry conditions...maybe got the birds
going!
A Double-barred Finch which started nest building 2
mths ago
is back at the nest in our Lemon
tree.........presuming it's the
same finch!
All the best,
Bill
