Content preview: Hi Martin, I observe groups, usually scattered individuals,
in a variety of habitats from the edge of grazing paddocks, on fences and
roads, as well as along gravel roads in state forests. Roads seem to be an
attraction but then I am usually driving along the roads, although if they
were gathering away from roads I would also see them there at times.
Unfortunately
I haven’t recorded these observations in any systematic way but most roads
in open country and lightly forested country seem to have these birds. I
have just finished 3 months work in northern New South Wales which involved
driving many back roads. Willie Wagtails were a common sight along many of
them, often foraging on the road and flying to a perch nearby as we drove
by. I will note the numbers and locations of them in the future as it would
be good to document this regular irruption. Like Lloyd I have also seen them
spread along roads spaced at about 100 m from each other. [...]
