I took an early morning tour through the Warks/Old Mill Rd loop,
which was in itself an achievement because every time I have tried in
the last 12 months the road has been blocked. Highlights included
Wonga, Cicada- Whip- and Pilotbirds and excellent views of Brush
Cuckoos. Significantly, this was the first occasion that I have
heard Wonga calling since the January '03 fires. All of the expected
wet gully specialities were also performing well. As always plenty
of timber was falling even on a perfectly still morning. I am
pleased to report some minor washouts...... reminiscent of old times.
