Almost Backyard BOPs

["Alan Gillanders" <>]

G'day,
Over the last month I have seen all the Australian diurnal raptor species 
with the exception of the Letter-wing Kite and Black-breasted Buzzard, 
within a half hour drive of home.
Yesterday, when exiting the Yungaburra State Forest heading south, I saw a 
Spotted Harrier crossing the road. Above him was a Black Kite. Perched on 
consecutive fence posts fifty metres along the road were Wdgetailed Eagle, 
Brown Falcon and Whistling Kite. To the right over some maize was a Swamp 
Harrier. Six species seen in almost as little time as needed to register 
their presence.
Regards,
Alan
