The following is a digest of Sightings Reported on Birdpedia for the period
Monday, July 12, 2010 to Sunday, July 18, 2010:
Area: SA
Date: Sunday, July 11, 2010
Location: On the banks of the Torrens behind the zoo
Darter (Anhinga novaehollandiae) (1) The darter was perched on the grass on the
riverbank next to the zoo, between the cycle/walking path and the river, drying
its wings, taking no notice of walkers or cyclists. (It probably couldn't take
off. It looked very wet). We walked past only 2 metres away. The river was
very dirty, and appeared to be liquid black mud, but maybe some fish are
surviving.
