Rufous Songlark

[Joe Barr <>]

Alternatively you could go up the Jarramlee Homestead road at Dunlop. In 
the wooded paddock just outside the homestead gate this morning there were 
rufous songlarks, rainbow bee-eaters, white-winged trillers (see attached), 
diamond firetails, dusky woodswallows, grey shrike thrushes (nestbuilding) 
as well as the usual wrens, white-plumed honeyeaters, black-faced cuckoo 
shrikes, rosellas, goldfinches, crested pigeons, thornbills and passing 
magpie-larks and magpies. Beautiful morning for it!
