By donaldgkimball, on September 1st, 2019 Hi Folks. I was curious about Bourke's parrot distribution in NSW. Specifically are they ever seen between Griffith and Dubbo? What about other eastern areas in NSW? It appears if I have Ebird correctly that they only come as far east as Bourke and as far south as Broken Hill in NSW or there abouts. . . . → Read More: Bourke’s Parrot Distribution in Eastern NSW
By Birding-Aus, on September 1st, 2019 An amazing variety of calls comes into the peregrine nestcam (not the ledgecam) mic at Orange, there being stands of trees visible beneath – http://www.csu.edu.au/special/falconcam/Streams/camera-one.htm (If you’re into species-call monitoring, just keep an eye on the clock at top-left of screen: some days the cam jumps back&forth a bit.)

He would like to stay in Sydney where he could access some good birding spots on foot or by public transportation. He would also like a recommendation on a place to stay. He’s a very good birder but is . . . → Read More: RFI Sydney

By Birding-Aus, on August 30th, 2019 Hello Everyone,
I have been trying to track down some of the HANZAB volumes for a while, yet I can not seem to find out where I can look at them.
I live in Perth, and none of the Public Libraries have them available (or so my research has . . . → Read More: HANZAB
By Birding-Aus, on August 30th, 2019 Thanks Mike for doing the HANZAB Vol 5 search. I am now of the opinion that mite infestation is the most likely explanation for this peculiar behaviour. Geoff
By Birding-Aus, on August 29th, 2019 Thank you all for your detailed and considered opinions on this observation. Some comments: . initially I did think the birds were probably listening for what dangers (reptilian, mammalian or avian) may be laying inside the nest box. However, I began to doubt this theory when I noticed how frequently the male head pressed the . . . → Read More: Head pressing by Eastern Rosellas

By Birding-Aus, on August 28th, 2019 Once again we have Eastern Rosellas nesting in a box next to our lounge room wall. This year we have again observed a puzzling behavioural pattern by the nesting couple. The lengthy process of nest selection (we have two boxes in the backyard) involves much 'head pressing' where the bird presses its forehead on the . . . → Read More: Head pressing by Eastern Rosellas
