While Little Darwin was lost in cyberspace, our resident Sunbirds , one above, disappeared , possibly the victim of predators . Their nest now hangs neglected .Two settings of Curlew eggs failed to result in any surviving hatchlings , a cat frequently spotted at Nellie Bay , running down drains when challenged .
