Black-faced Monarch on Thurs this week in a gully SW of Pambalong NR.
And... I think this list is a potential source of useful anecdotal
information. Alan Morris reports on the impacts on native birds of the
Newcastle Disease outbreak at Mangrove Mountain a few years ago were very
helpful additions to an EIS I worked on for a poultry development.
All this stuff about migratories can build a real story after a few years.
I've found that dedicated enthusiasts of natural history in many areas can
make a real contribution to scientific knowledge and should be listened to
carefully.
Now off my soapbox...

Hi Birders,
I think that Tony Russell must have been having a bad hair day, to complain
about people wriitng about birds!! Surely it is a change from GPS's
Maybe its jealousy, all those great birds passing up and down the NSW coast
and totally missing Adelaide all together! Don't worry Tony, we still have
Sacred Kingfishers, Dollarbirds, Leaden Flycatchers, Rufous Fantails,
Black-faced Monarchs, Cicadabirds, Brush Cuckoos and Swifts still to
come.and to write about!
No Dollarbirds or Sacred Kingfishers here at Bateau Bay yet, but Sacred
Kingfishers were first seen on 18/9/05 at Condobolin and Eubalong West and
White-backed Swallows at Lake Cargelligo STW on 17/9/05.
As the local Regional Organiser for the BA Bird Atlas, many of the local
records at least make the Atlas!
