Hi Allan

Funnily enough, there is currently one Noisy Pitta being seen in the
Illawarra.

Sunday 25th August Birdline: Noisy Pitta, Blackbutt Forest Reserve,
Blackbutt
First observed by an Illawarra birders member on Friday. The bird is
currently living under a flying fox colony.
Michael Crosland

They're on the move!

Cheers,
Josh
