Mulligans-Goorooyarroo

A 3 hour bike ride around Mulligans
Flat and Goorooyarroo Reserves on Saturday afternoon produced around 40
species. I stopped to check out some of the lesser visited sites in the
far north and east of Mulligans and the adjacent section of Goorooyarroo,
but couldnt find any Red-capped or Hooded Robins. Can anyone tell me when
and where they were last seen?

I did find (but only 2) Scarlet Robins,
Varied Sittella, Brown-headed Honeyeater, Western Gerygone
(3 separate birds calling), Noisy Friarbird (birds calling in both
reserves), Tree Martin, Yellow Thornbill, 5 Common Bronzewing,
and what sounded like a Shining Bronze-Cuckoo which I couldnt then
find.

What was interesting was listening to
at least 3 Grey Butcherbirds calling close to dusk within several
100 metres of each other on the Mulligans-Goorooyarroo border.

In addition to this my brother on his
morning walk that day also spotted a Crested Shrike-tit in woodland
close to the small set of dams and a pair of Little Corellas by
the large dam. I could find neither that afternoon on my ride.

Cheers
Marnix
