Hi Bill,
Having spent a fair bit of time working on Avalon Airport itself, I can say
that he is correct. There is no OBP habitat on the airport property proper.
Towards the coast and in the adjacent saltworks there are small sections which
may be suitable, but I've never seen any OBPs or even Blue-wings in the
airport. So, as far as I'm aware Linfox is correct in saying that no OBPs have
been found on their property itself and I imagine would only ever be observed
within the airport grounds in transit (pun intended).
Hope this helps,
Paul
