Went to Campbell Park.at 1pm today for a quick look.

A lot of birds, particularly noisy friarbirds with more than 20, probably a lot more as most common bird. At one stage I had 5 male white winged trillers within range. And I think there were easily double that number. 2 olive backed orioles, 2 sacred kingfishers near the car park, 4 white throated gerygones and 1 western G. a pair of mistletoe birds. 2 dollarbirds near horse stile, 1 pallid cuckoo heard in distance.

3 birds of prey: 1 wedgie, 1 peregrine (although a sillouette I am pretty sure by behaviour), and one unidentified, large, flying low, dark, wings held up, strait edged tail, possible black or brown falcon or kite, but only a quick glimpse. Would be curious if other people saw.

1 dusky woodswallow. Other usuals including magpie larks and willie wagtails with chicks in nest, rufous whistlers, at least 4 common bronzewings.

Also most of the yellowbox were in flower. Other flowers included the odd scaley buttons, new holland daisies (Vittadinia mueleri and 1 cuneata).
