On July 1st 2007 an egg was laid by a Pied Oystercatcher that was known to be an adult in 2002 and had been banded in nearby Roebuck Bay. They fed well in that area and by 18th September 2007 the young Pied Oystercatcher had learnt to fly. A second egg was laid the following day and the two eggs hatched at the end of the month.

The Red-breasts tend to keep together, though within the White-front flocks, and it always takes some time with the scope to pick them out, even when there are hundreds of birds present. Most of the birds are White-fronts, but there are a few Red-breasts there, too (honestly!)

Gentle March sun, bare oak branches, short grass, and bird migration in full swing. Since the spring has come early, the latter was the norm of the day.
