Today we went with the Australian Native Plants Society to Monga NP,
nearish to Braidwood, with a main aim of seeing the Plumwood trees in
flower. This aim was magnificently fulfilled and there were some
excellent birds as well.
My avifaunal highlights were Large-billed Scrubwren (my 2nd ever), at
least 4 and perhaps 6 Red-browed Treecreepers (with some observers
possibly seeing young being fed); and a pair of Rose Robins (with
others being heard at other parts of the Park). Honeyeaters were
mainly static (ie no migration evident) but quite good diversity with
Crescent (several), Yellow-facd, White-naped and Brwon-headed
Honeyeaters plust Eastern Spinebill being recorded in various spots.
I think I also won the leech pool with two on my arms at different
times, due to injudicious leaning on stuff.
