Greetings,
Still no sign of activity at the Longlands Gap site.
At another site at similar altitude on private land we saw today one piece
of new lichen in the bower. Nearby we observed a female pick fruit from a
Blair's Malletwood and take it off in the same direction on three of those
occasions and nearly so on the fourth. She flew back in from that direction
also. Could she be feeding young already even though there has been no male
displaying (that I know of)? The fruit are about 1.5 x 2.5 to 2 x 3 cm so
are large for such a small bowerbird. If it is going to young they must be
close to fledging.
Regards,
Alan Gillanders
