Evercreech

Another beautiful sunny spring morning and a great bird list for Evercreech. Also noted on the bottom of the list are a few additional species spotted on the way home from a few cars along the Mathinna Road. Unfortunately we saw a Wedge-tailed eagle that had only recently been hit by a car/truck? dead in a paddock.

Next month, 7th December lets have a look at the migratory and resident shorebirds around the Dora Point mudflats. If time persists or the birds are not around Dora point, we could also go to Pelican Point on the other side of the bay or Scamander. There are Fairy terns, Bar-tailed Godwits and red-necked stints around at the moment. Bring your scope if you have one and of course morning tea.

Best birding wishes,
Liz
