By Birding-Aus, on December 29th, 2018 Hello, I will be heading North East from Dubbo, with some time for camping and bird watching over the next two days. I noticed an article in a local paper about fires through Goonoo, so I am considering heading towards Goulburn River NP and then North, rather than through Mendooran. I’ve found conflicting advice . . . → Read More: RFI “Rock Warbler Spot”

By Birding-Aus, on December 26th, 2018 I have just seen two Torresian Crows together mob the peak of a conifer, from which one swooped off with a live large-ish passerine, squawking pitifully.

By Birding-Aus, on December 25th, 2018 Hi Mr. Debus
It might be fine for you to accuse some of the concerned public as going off half-cocked about the latest Red Goshawk debacle but how can we be sure that it is not you also going off half-cocked with the information you provided. You talk about the . . . → Read More: Red Goshawks caught and netted during nesting season
By Birding-Aus, on December 24th, 2018 A pair of Peregrine Falcons have resided on top of the 12 story Grand Hotel at Glenelg, an Adelaide seaside suburb, for many years. Since I have been living in the area (three years) I have seen one, most likely the male (based on size) most days. Occasionally, there are two.

By Birding-Aus, on December 24th, 2018 Aaaah , Transparency is a wonderful thing.
We need more of it, like who, or what agency, makes the final decision on the Rio Development?

By Birding-Aus, on December 23rd, 2018 So Stephen Debus dismisses those who raise questions about endangered species research as "trolls and detractors on blogs and chatlines going off half-cocked".
