I started the day at Callum Brae where the least common birds were 2
Rainbow Lorikeets.  I thought this unusual until I checked the text of
the latest ABR to find it is a common site for the species.  Both
rosella species were inspecting hollows.  Only little corellas and
they were behaving with great decorum (at least relative to the
long-billed lasciviousness reported last week).

On to a windy Acacia Inlet Park to check for Great Crested Grebe.
Absent: probably hiding from the gale in the reeds.

On to Corroboree Park to check for the Tawny Frogmouth(s).  Absent - I
didn't have the details of the location but thanks to Robin I will
have another, better equipped go later,  I did however see a Crested
Pigeon sitting on a nest behind the Ainslie Hall.
