Wandering Whistling-Duck, Black Kite, Little Eagle

Thanks to replenishing rains in the Lockyer Valley, we're well placed for a record haul in 2009. No excuses why we can't give 250 spp a real shake. Over to you ...

Wandering Whistling-Duck, Black Kite, Little Eagle

Post by Mick Atzeni »

Wandering Whistling-Duck - six birds at Hood's Lagoon, Helidon. Hadn't seen this species in the local survey area for over 26 years ago - 3 birds at Hood's 15/1/83!
Black Kite - single bird over Warrego Highway, Withcott
Little Eagle - pair over Withcott

These three new species were amongst 120 species seen in the amazing Lockyer Valley by visiting Bundaberg birder Trevor Quested and myself today 21/3.
