Nice to hear that, but they are new arrivals. Traditionally they weren't there. 
See the Vic Atlas and Birds of Geelong by Trevor Pescott (1983). The species 
didn't even get a mention in Charles Belcher's (1914) Birds of the District of 
Geelong, Australia.

When do think the Connewarre birds arrived?
