We must have visited different parts of Mulligans Flat.

I went for a walk there this morning and saw Scarlet Robins, but no
other robins.  These we with a groups of Brown-headed Honeyeaters,
Speckled Warblers, Buff-rumped Thornbills and a pair(?) of Rufous
Whistlers at the eastern end of the old coach road.
