Our garden in (dry) Giralang occasionally produces something a little
different in the bird line. This late afternoon it was a Rufous Fantail (a
first for our garden bird chart) together with our usual mixed feeding flock
of Weebill, Superb Fairywren and Silvereye.

Earlier this afternoon out at Uriarra Crossing we saw small flocks of
migrating honeyeaters, and also Dusky Woodswallow and Red-browed Finch.
Large numbers of Sulphur-crested Cockatoos were quietly shredding the
casuarinas. A White-throated Treecreeper gleaned insects as we sat watching
nearby.
