Keith and Lindsay have filled everyone in on the waterbird happenings around
Cairns but here's a bit more.
I cycled and walked up the Barron Gorge Road this morning and there were
small parties of Hardheads all the way along the river - the largest group
was 25.  Most unusual to see any along this stretch of river.  They easily
outnumbered the Pacific Black Ducks.
I have been seeing a few hardheads in the small creeks along Clifton Beach
and Palm Cove beaches over the last couple of weeks - first time in 18 years
I have recorded them there.
