Hi
Martin Butterworth kindly showed me the ins and outs of Yanununbeyan NR/NP yesterday. We had a pleasant day of birding and bird talk and some observations for the above three grids. We thought that there was at least some habitat more or, perhaps, less suitable for the above three species and speculated on why we were not seeing the three species listed in the heading. It could have been that they are there but so scarce we simply did not pick them up, or it could be that we did not cover enough ground. I would appreciate any views on the topic - or on advice about where and how to find Chestnut-rumped Heathwrens. We did pick up over thirty species including: Superb Lyrebird, Brown Goshawk and Eastern Yellow Robin. Small parties of Yellow-faced and White-naped Robins were on the move - mainly in a South-east direction.
