Hello All,
Maria and I are back home and on the list
again.
It's raining! So what some of you
may say, thinking about the Wet Tropics, but they have been exceptionally
dry.
Saw some great birds while down south but no
lifers. It was not really a birding holiday. Relatives and more relatives. The
highlight for me was seeing three species of thornbill within 20 metres at
Wolomomby Falls.
Blue-faced Parrot-finches have
been seen at Lake Eacham. While this is a first it is not hugely surprising. On
Lake Tinaroo near Yungaburra there are two flocks of Little Black
Cormorants ; over five hundred in one and about two hundred in the
other.
More birding info as I get out and
about.
Regards,
Alan Gillanders
