Responding to Carol Proberts and Tom Wilson - yes we too have seen many more
Yellow-faced HE than in previous years - huge numbers at Warriewood and
Chiltern Track (our regular haunts lately) and also have seen many more
White-naped than other years. In the latter case though, it may be that we're
just becoming better at identifying them. Swamp Mahoganies in particular are
in flower (or about to be) in both these locations. In early April we were in
Capertee for a day and noted several groups (up to 20 or so) of Yellow-faced
flying over as if on their usual migration, but have no idea whether this was
more or less than in other years and it was only one day.
