That's Melbourne.....
Off for a walk shortly to get a close up view of those big waves - sometimes you get interesting birds blown in & it's amusing (but cruel) watching the pelicans getting tossed about by the wind as they try to land on the lagoon...
Each to his/her own, but this is what makes me happy...
Cheers,

Sorry to go slightly off topic folks, but birds and weather go together so to speak!

I'm not sure exactly what counts as a 'rare vagrant' here, because I'm not that good at identifying them yet! I keep meaning to go on a course that the Bird Observers Club of Oz run locally. However, last time it was really squally, we saw things that looked like Curlew sandpipers sheltering among the rocks on the foreshore, which we hadn't seen here before.
Yes, deffo meet up for birding - sounds good!
Cheers,
Anya.

There's a very rare wader that sometimes turns up in your neck of the woods called Cox' Sandpiper. It's been seen at Altona and Werribee and possibly elsewhere. It's illustrated in 'Frasers'. Not the most exciting Aussie bird I know, but I like an identification challenge!
