Bronzewings in Ivanhoe, Vic

[brian fleming <>]

There is a wide grassy reserve beside the Boulevard in Ivanhoe 
(Melbourne), planted with cypresses and other trees.  I often see 
Spotted Doves and Crested Pigeons feeding there, but today at midday I 
was surprised to notice four Common Bronzewings on the grass - looking 
absolutely enormous compared to a Spotted Dove.  This was by the 
Redesdale Rd intersection.
   These days Common Bronzewings are often seen in nearby Wilson 
Reserve, but I did not expect them in such suburban surroundings.
