Beautiful conditions today to take a visiting French birder around.
Highlights were an Aussie Bittern (on the Borrow Pits in clear view on the
bank) and a Spotted Crake (on the Conservation Ponds). Also had immature Sea
Eagle, Black-shouldered Kite and Sparrowhawk and a Song Thrush.
Some birds were present in HUGE numbers - I have never seen so many Little Black Cormorants (by "Cormorant Jetty"), Avocet (by the hide) or Straw Necked Ibis (T-section). Yet we saw only one White Fronted Chat the entire day - normally one of the commonest birds around the place. -------------------------------------------- Birding-Aus is now on the Web at www.birding-aus.org -------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send the message 'unsubscribe birding-aus' (no quotes, no Subject line) to |
