Mt Majura was very, very dry and the number of
species of birds was way down.
My best birding was on the eastern side early in
the morning.However the 24hr bike event is bound to have sent some birds off. A
few adult White-winged Choughs were trying desperately to distract
attention from 2 just out of the nest young as the bike riders 'flew'
past.
I saw 3 speckled Warblers and a Leaden Flycatcher
half way up and I did see 2 beautiful Rufus Fantails near the summit. They
were in the Currajong and casuarinas on the western side.
A non birdo reported 2 small eagles that she
often watches near the presently dry waterfall.
I did not get a sighting of them but other more
frequent visitors might.
Cheers Julienne
