Rufous fantail and Varied sittellas at ANBG

This morning at the ANBG I was watching one of my fairy-wren groups just uphill from the Mallee area when I had one of those magic moments in the middle of a busy mixed feeding flock which, amongst the numerous HE and thornbills, white-throated TC and fantails, included both Varied sittella and a Rufous fantail.

Its the first time this season I've seen either species in the botanic gardens - I have only previously seen the sitellas much further up-hill near the back fence.

Regards,
Lucy Aplin
