RFI Pelican breeding - Vict. (Aust.)

A request for the list.

As part of a short paper on breeding of the Australian Pelican in Victoria, I am compiling a table of recent breeding records of the species.

Would anyone who has observed nesting or suspected breeding by the species anywhere in Victoria please contact me with the details?

If you have visited or heard about any breeding of Pelicans from the following Victorian localities I'm also keen to hear from you.

I'm seeking any data since 1998 or so and am happy to hear of any interstate breeding events of the species as well to put the Victorian observations in context.

Please contact me directly.

cheers, Martin
