Rod, I have a map in front of me, the 1::25000. To find black faced monarch's nest. Turn right, from Princes H'way, when you are just through Narooma along Old H'way Road.. At junction with Flying Fox Road, turn into FFRoad. Continue to the end to Flying Fox Bay. A walk starts there Ringlands walk. Go through the gate, towards Wagonga Inlet. Turn right at a T junction. (Left goes to a rain forest gully which is interesting too). After about 10 minutes, you pass a point out to the inlet, where there are 2 seats. Continue past this point for another 10 minutes. Hopefully you would then see/ hear the monarchs. The bird will have to lead you to the nest. It is about eye level. There is a large dead fallen tree on the RHS of the path, near the nest. Good luck!! I hope that you find it and take a photo. It is a most beautiful nest
