We drove to Jindalee on Saturday. The countryside on the way looks
good, green crops and yellow rape seed flowering. But Jindalee was
bone dry; and there were not many birds. But the highlight was a
pair of rufous songlarks, singing their hearts out. There were also
many brown tree creepers. At a B.and B. nearby where we stayed
overnight we saw more songlarks, pipits, a family of trillers and a
solitary red capped robin. Also a crested pidgeon was nesting
We drove on to Temora. On the lake we saw the native hen. (Same one
as we saw years ago with you, Ian?)
We went to Ingalba Reserve, but saw very few birds there. Oh, we
first saw apostle birds on the side of the road, between Jindalee and
Temora. We did not see any babblers at a
Elizabethll
