   Sun 10 Aug Daurian Starling (Purple-backed Starling) Cocos Keeling

   This bird first seen on the 10th August at 9.00am by a golf player.

   Mon 21 Jul Grey Wagtail Home Island, Cocos Keeling Islands.
   A Grey Wagtail settled in a Guava tree amongst the houses on Home
   Island for two and a half weeks while the wind was over 25 knots. When
   the southerly wind stopped the bird was gone, presumably heading North
   as it was in full breeding plumage.
