Rare birds on Cocos PHOTOS

[Simon Mustoe <>]

Information on the rarities at Cocos can be found on Birding Tours' pages here: 
http://aussiebirding.wildiaries.com/trips/10396. The images are not great 
quality, on account they were transmitted over low bandwidth. Better versions 
will be available later.

Richard has requested input on identification. Comments can be left on the trip 
page and he'll receive these by email. He has also said there are spaces 
available for North Keeling on Thu.

Regards,

Simon.

> days. David's group reports a Eurasian Hobby on Horsburgh Is and a Watercock
> on West. There is an obliging Yellow Bittern on West and Richard reports a
> Large Hawk Cuckoo and possible Japanese Sparrowhawk on West and the island
> residents report a large raptor! There is water from a recent cyclone
> everywhere.
