ANU birds

[(Harvey Perkins)]

Hi all,

Just got back from a cross-campus errand, and in the fifteen minutes of
walking clocked up 29 species (including feral exotics!) which I thought
was pretty good, particularly given that it could easily have contained a
number of others such as galah, S-c cockatoo etc.

Here they are:

Pacific Black Duck              Superb Fairy-wren
Australian Wood Duck            Striated Pardalote
Great Cormorant                 Red Wattlebird
Little Black Cormorant          Noisy Miner
Little Pied Cormorant           Magpie-lark
Eurasian Coot                   Willie Wagtail
Dusky Moorhen                   Australian Magpie
Purple Swamphen                 Pied Currawong
(Feral) Rock Dove               Dusky Woodswallow
Gang-gang Cockatoo              Australian Raven
Crimson Rosella                 Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike
Eastern Rosella                 Welcome Swallow
                                Clamorous Reed Warbler
                                House Sparrow
                                Silvereye
                                Common Starling
                                Common Myna

Cheers

Harvey
