Hi All,

The following is a list of bird species seen while i was visiting family. I went to the Following Locations Warrnambool where i stayed with family and did quite alot of birding, Tower Hill where i went for a few hours of birding and Griffith's Island (Port Fairy) where i enjoyed great views of the Australian Gannets and Short-tailed Shearwater's Off Shore. One bird that i would like to know about is the Song Thrush is this species seen in Warrnambool at times or was i lucky to see it at Tower Hill? I believe the Song Thrush is rare so it would be interesting to know what their status is in Warrnambool. Anyway here is my list of the 70 species seen.
