Hi all,

  I observed a single Dollarbird along Upper Dartbrook Road yesterday morning 
(N 6459825 / E287350), which is by far the earliest I have seen one on their 
return to the south. The area is generally cleared with scattered trees and it 
was seen "rolling" near an isolated house, upon which's TV antenna it would 
perch.

  Also of interest are two Blue-billed Ducks at Walka Water Works, just outside 
of Maitland (incidentally where a Baillon's Crake and a single Blue-billed Duck 
were seen a couple of weeks ago).
