This record I believe is only the third in the club survey area since the club's inception in 1975. Well done Rod!I took the mutt for a walk dodging showers around the base of Picnic Point this afternoon. At 4.10pm, about half way along the Firebreak towards Table Top Drive I flushed a female Superb Fruit-Dove Ptilinopus superbus from a clump of Lantana on the trackside. I think that she may have been eating the berries of the Lantana when I came upon her. HANZAB records the species eating this fruit and the local Lantana is now heavy in berry.
