| Sat 12 | | Crimson Chat and Banded Lapwings (13)
Old Boboyan Road at -35.7479, 148.9882 |
|
| Were lucky enough to find the Banded Lapwings this morning (thanks to Christine and Sue). Surprise observation was a female Crimson Chat. Chat was first seen flying in with a couple of Brown-headed Honeyeater in a small woodland area halfway up the hill from the second creek crossing on Boboyan Rd. Initially seen on trees on right of road, but later it flew to the other side of the road. Hard to see on the ground.
The Banded Lapwing were observed in the same valley at the top of the hill. eBird checklist |

| Very uncommon in the ACT. Also at the pond this morning a Black-winged Stilt, the first I've seen at this site. [Moderator's note: Last Common Sandpiper observed at Lake Ginninderra in 2008] eBird checklist |
