Spotted Quail Thrush at Helidon 8th April

In 2006, we set up the inaugral Challenge to see if we could collectively record 250 species during the year in the club's survey area. How did we go? Extremely well considering the drought... Plenty of unusual and rare birds .... some great records from non-members too. It was a fascinating year. And a worthwhile exercise which we encourage other groups to follow. See for yourself...

Spotted Quail Thrush at Helidon 8th April

Post by Bill Jolly »

On Saturday 8 April, with Melanie Votaw a birder from New York, excellent views of a male Spotted-Quail Thrush in the forest on the western side of 17 Mile Road, well inside the club's eastern boundary.

Unusual/Rare Bird Report will be submitted to the Records Officer later today.
