Recent Sightings
For the best idea of what is being seen, it's always best to consult ebird.org. Then go to Explore and then Hotspots.
You can type in Hunter Island or Turtle Cove or wherever you want to go. A list will come up giving you the name of the person who was there last, and what they saw. If you're not a member of ebird, it's great to sign up. It's a free service that keeps a record of everything you saw as long as you're diligent about submitting results. You'll also be doing your part for Citizen Science. This is a free service.
On our walks, these are the birds seen. Not everyone saw all of the species.
