It was present today and was= observed by a few people including myself. I've spoken to the owners of t= he property where the egret is tending, Tim and Theresa. They do not mind = people coming for to see the bird as long as it does not get out of hand. = So if you would like to go for the bird send me an email and I'll let you k= now where it is. That way I can monitor how many people are showing up and= I can insure that we do not make it uncomfortable for the property owners.= From conversations with both I do not think it will become an issue, but = better safe than sorry. Kevin Lantz found a yellow-breasted chat the other day just up from where o= ne turns into the First Peninsula road. If you park at the entrance to Fir= st Peninsula and walk along the main drag of the Back Harbour Road back tow= ards Lilydale, a short ways along there is a culvert with a load of multifl= ora. This is where the chat is tending. I got to see it today, but it was= very skulky. A bonus was a northern mockingbird at the same location. I had a hawk being pursued by American crows at First Peninsula quite close= to the entrance. I cannot say 100 percent for sure, but I suspect it was = a red-shouldered hawk rather than a red-tailed hawk of which I often see at= this location. It did not have the knuckles of the red-tail. I suspect i= t was a juvenile bird and unfortunately I did not have time to see the whit= e crescent. The hawk was extremely pale, with the reddish wash to the tail= . It disappeared before I clued in to taking a photo and I could not reloc= ate it.
