Hi Birders,
Terrill Nordstrom reported on a Swamp Harrier at
Maddens Plains south of Sydney. While it is many years since I have lived in
Sydney and regularly travelled south along the coast, I do remember seeing Swamp
Harriers over that low costal heath at Maddens Plains. I would suspect that the
sighting is not unusual because Swamp Harriers are sometimes seen on the coastal
heaths here on the Central Coast. However I may be wrong and maybe the Illawarra
birderes have better knowledge of this than I do.
