In the first two weeks of January 2025 I have seen 74 species, across five different LGAs in South Australia. I have been a bit held back by an injury, but I am keen to see as much as I can without walking too far. Next weekend I will be off on my first trip of the year, down to the southeast of the state.
I have had a couple of nice local-ish birding sessions already this year - one at Whicker Road Wetlands in Gillman, and another at Thompson Beach in the Adelaide International Bird Sanctuary at Dublin.
I was elated to come across Great Crested Grebe and White-winged Fairywren at Whicker Road, and Elegant Parrot, Bar-tailed Godwit, Curlew Sandpiper, and both Pied and Sooty Oystercatchers at Thompson Beach, among other species.
Looking forward to seeing what else I can find!
