Birds in heat

[brian fleming <>]

I recollect reading an account of assorted native birds in very hot 
weather, either at Hattah or Wyperfeld N.P.   The birds included 
White-winged Choughs, and various other species, large and small.  They 
were sheltering from the extreme heat by burrowing into  the heaps of 
fallen bark and leaf litter at the bases of old trees - just the sort of 
stuff that gets tidied up by fire-safety conscious park management.
If anyone else can recall where this appeared, I would like to know.  It 
may have been in the "Bird Observer" .
