and this morning at Shephed's Lookout in a MFF moving through the
bushes in the the area surrounded by the walking track
about 20 grey fantails
est. 10 each of buff-rumped and yellow-rumped thornbills
2 scarlet robin
1 grey shrike thrush

closer to the entry - 1 olive-backed oriole, 6 rainbow bee-eaters.  2
grey currawongs calling, and a peregrine flew in front of me at the
actual lookout and perched about 50 m away, in blustery, misty
(=miserable) conditions.
