Coming up on Saturday 13 June: BLNR's outing to Rummery Park. Drive up Minyon Falls Road and meet at 8 AM at the Rummery Creek campground. There is always the chance here of seeing unusual and special birds like paradise riflebirds, Bassian thrush, bazas and peregrine falcons. Perhaps the massive flocks of topknot pigeons will still be flying overhead.

Tweed Osprey Group is looking for volunteers to monitor Osprey breeding sites in the Tweed Local Government Area. Our focus is primarily to determine the breeding success (or otherwise) at each site monitored. Volunteers regularly keep an eye on one or more sites, recording breeding activity from courtship through to fledging, and reporting any issues of concern. Time commitment is up to each volunteer, but of course the more time spent watching the better. You will need binoculars, and while a scope is ideal it isn’t mandatory.

If you have regular access to an Osprey nesting site in the Tweed LGA, and this opportunity interests you please contact Tweed Osprey Group co-ordinator by email or phone:

April's outing to Seapeace was a great success. Many birders - from novices to experienced - showed up and we scored 100 species. Possibly the most unexpected were two noisy pittas seen near the ridgetop.

Our next outing is to be held on 9th May we're heading for Crams Farm, Doon Doon. This gorgeous landscape can present quite a few bird surprises. See you there at 8 AM but don't forget to register ------> [email protected]
