By Birding-Aus, on November 17th, 2022 We have looked several times for Song Thrush in places they have previously been seen around Melbourne. Are they virtually gone now and maybe only a couple of places being kept virtually as pet birds at occasional garden sites? Cheers Madelon

By Birding-Aus, on November 9th, 2022 DC Cameras are an online store, based in Sydney I think. I am suspicious that it is a scam/criminal front. I ordered binoculars back in July, they took the money, they advertised the binoculars were in stock. So since then nothing ZIP, no answers on the “chatline” , no reply to emails, no phone as . . . → Read More: DC Cameras
By seashore, on October 30th, 2022 Alula flight feathers or, bastard winglets are small wings at the elbow of birds especially raptors… and probably many others. I took some photographs of a Nankeen Kestrel displaying them in strong up-draughts hovering above the cliffs south of my home in Adelaide… and an Australasian Pelican sans alula’s… https://www.ararelitus.com/blog/nankeen-kestrel-cliff-soaring … can be seen on my . . . → Read More: Bastard Winglets on a Nankeen Kestrel

By Birding-Aus, on October 17th, 2022 What is the state of the roads in the WTP at present?
