Hi,
        Spent the Weekend at Deep creek CP in Sth. Aust. and saw a few 
interesting
sightings.
        Adelaide rosella and one that was that so red it was almost a Crimson 
        Rosella ( perhaps it was )
        Sulphur Crested Cockatoo
        Black Cockatoo - could not see what sort exactly,I saw no yellow flashes
                          - there is supposed to be an isolated colony of 
Glossy 
                            Blacks down here somewhere.

        Kookaburra - thin specimen in top condition with extemely vivid blue 
patch 
                           on it's wing which I thought was unusual.  
        Scarlet robins
        Splendid fairy-wrens
        Red Browed finches
        Eastern Spinebill
        Brown Treecreeper  all in Stringybark forest with Blackboy understory
        
        also found an Echidna burrowing in under an Xanthorrea

        Sooty Oyster-catcher down on the beach.

Regards,
        Peter.
