Yes, I heard one there too. Not having as much time to
spare as Lachlan, a Bushflyer and one of our finest young orienteers, I did not
stop. I regularly see or hear them in that area, always in the
casuarina, which at one point comes down to the highway.

My son
Lachlan Dow saw two Glossy Black Cockatoos whilst orienteering yesterday at
Timber Tops, a private property east of Bungendore (turn off where the sign on
the Kings Hwy notes the Great Divide altitude). He heard them first whilst
running, stopped and found them in Casuarina.
