Kelly Road starts 4.5 km south of Williamsdale on
the Monaro Hwy.
When I last went past the sign was missing. Kelly
Rd rejoins the Hwy some kms south.
Turnoff to the left (watch for fast traffic behind)
and cross the railway line to the corner.
The paddock east of the corner is good for Brown
Treecreeper, S Whiteface etc.
Downhill on the left look for Diamond Firetail on
dead veg. and Pipit on the ground.
The area around the old houses is not very
productive but we saw a Nankeen Night-heron in the pine trees.
Further along you will come to a TSR with horses in
on the left, there are often birds in this area.
At about this point a track enters from the Hwy.
Look around this intersection for Hooded Robins.
Along the road south from this point look for
Fuscous HE among the White-plumed HE.
The good birding continues for about 200 m past the
intersection on the left.
