Hi all,
A White-breasted Woodswallow at Cowans Pond, near
Grafton on Saturday April 9, a White-throated Nightjar at Braunstone at night on
April 10 and 1 Whimbrel, 21 Greater and 11 Lesser Sand Plovers, 18 Red-necked
Stints, 14 Ruddy Turnstones, 75 Common Terns and 9 Little Terns at Back Beach,
near Woody Head, Bundjalung National Park today April 11. Two Lesser Sand
Plovers were in breeding plumage.
First honeyeater migration for the year noted today
at Tyndale with two small groups of Noisy Friarbirds flying N and a small flock
of Yellow-faced Honeyeaters
landing in roadside trees. Large numbers of
Noisy Friarbirds were present in flowering eucalypts near Middle Creek, W of
Grafton on April 9, almost certainly migrants.
Regards
Greg
