Birding at Myuna Bay, N.S.W.


Starting point at 8.30 a.m. on a very chilly morning; much closer to home-base this one.

Pied Butcherbird - has a SUPER song.  Rather flute-like and it just echoed sweetly in the air.  You can hear it here on the Birds in Backyards fact-sheet (see side-bar for audio).

just a little higher, and in the same tree .. a Great Egret.  A strange combo, but it worked!



Sydney (sp) Wattle

..a bit fuzzy around the edges but these little boys move so fast, there was just one chance to hit the shutter while it was still in the viewfinder.  Superb Fairy Wren.

back out on the roadway, powerlines above, and a Bar-shouldered Dove

 Welcome Swallows


Silver Gull
