Swamp Harrier at Withcott

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...

Swamp Harrier at Withcott

Post by Bill Jolly »

A Swamp Harrier was at Withcott on Friday morning, 14th April.

It was being harrassed by Torresian Cows, quite low at first, then gradually climbed in circles to well above Range height.

I've seen several around the main water-bodies in the valley recently - maybe this one was heading west?
