I should have posted this last week, but around 9
am on Monday 23 October I heard the clear calls of the Red-capped Robin off
Dunrossil Drive Yarralumla. I tried to locate it for over 10
minutes in thick overgrown scrub near the fence on the SE corner of the
Royal Canberra Golf Course, but while it continued to call it kept moving in
front of me. It is unusual habitat, but I have recorded a
female/immature male < 200 m from here before, across the road in a
much more open area about 3 years ago when I was living nearby.
I meant to try to follow it up but have not
been able to.
