Large-billed crow (no photo)

Large-billed crow (no photo)

A flock of 24 was on telegraph wires above Bayside Beach in Clearwater Bay this morning. This is the largest flock I have seen in almost 5 years. Also a flock of around 100 Black kites - quite unusual here although 40-50 is not uncommon.

Thanks Geoff. The Avifauna records bigger flocks of LBC but although they are regular here I rarely see more than 3 or 4. I always trawl through the kite flocks for other raptor species. Sometimes there are common buzzards but usually nothing more. I am intrigued how my new home will be for birds. I have already seen Dusky warbler in the garden. When we move I will start an "official list".
