Graham and all,

I have not really noticed a decline anywhere in NSW - most places where I expect to see them they evenrtually turn (even if it is just very briefly early in the morning or late at night). I don't do much birding in western Sydney but certainly a little bit further west they are still present (and still breeding in January). The usual spots around the Tweed this January also seemed to have birds about as well.
Cheers,
Peter


I have recently realised that I have seen very few Bee eaters over the last few years and am wondering if anyone else has noticed a decline? I have to note that I haven't been to my regular spots to see these birds, but they do have a tendency to turn up just about anywhere. Any comments appreciated.
