White-necked Heron

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...

White-necked Heron

Post by Mick Atzeni »

Who would have thought it would take nearly four months to see one of these? Michael Wood and I saw a single bird 29/4/06 on a small farm dam while looking for Spotted Quail-thrush on Pat and David Cleary's property, Amos Rd, Withcott.

Alas, we heard but didn't manage to see the quail-thrush.
