Sunday walk around Coolamon Ridge area - walking along the equestrian trail at the back of ridge towards 2nd dam, I saw  2 double-barred finches, then a number of diamond firetails moving in from large tree in adjacent paddock to perch close to each other on smaller trees near dam. Counted 8 along a few branch while others remained in larger tree in paddock.
 
Once they had moved on, red-browed finches came through - I saw 6-7.
 
4 male flame robins, 2 females and 1 female scarlet robin. Heard a cuckoo but didnt see it(still learning calls....)
 
A good day really for me
