Hi everyone
Mulligan's felt just so moist and earthy today. Great what a bit of rain
will do. There are still 5 Banded Lapwing, which means the three chicks
are surviving well. Still in the same territory. The other highlight
were three Brown Treecreepers (more or less together) which were shortly
afterwards joined by a fourth Brown Treecreeper. A pair of Galahs were
inspecting a hollow - will the rain trigger another breeding round?
There were many flowering eucs and much flowering mistletoe which had
attracted more Noisy Friarbirds than I have seen before in Mulligans
(plus a lone Superb Parrot feeding on the flowering mistletoe). There
was lots of frog spawn in lots of new surface water. Good luck to the
little blighters - they have had a tough decade.
