It's that time of year again when we can expect to find Madagascar Pond Herons arriving on the mainland.
 
It would be good to know if they return to favourite haunts so please check the sites you are familiar with. Good quality negative data is important.
 
Grateful all you Selous and Kilombero based folk take special care in searching for and identifying these birds. These are probably the most important wintering sites for this globally threatened species.
 
It would be very good to hear from our friends in Madagascar on their thoughts on this past breeding season.
 
many thanks
