Hi,
Adrian Boyle, who is currently without email
access, has asked me to post an update: The Rosy
Starling was seen again today (24 September) in the Lake Eda area near Broome.
It is elusive but it is there, and some keen
birders are now flying to Broome in the hope of seeing the bird.
There is slight local concern that the
station-owner might become annoyed at repeated requests from bird-watchers to go
onto his land. Everyone who has been looking for the bird so far has been very
well behaved so far, but this bird is not surprisingly attracting a lot of
attention. To maintain good relations between birders and the station owner,
Adrian therefore suggests that anyone aiming to
look for the bird should contact Broome Bird Observatory, who can co-ordinate
access arrangements when necessary.
