The Bay

[Bob Rusk <>]

Hi Benj!

Next time you are at the B Bay Watergardens instead of going left over the boardwalk keep walking up towards the Gazebo. On the way there the White-Cheeked HEs are usually found in the trees along the pond edge. They are easily mistaken for New Holland HEs, find the dark eyed"New Hollands" with the big white "eyebrow" and you've found the W-Cheeked HEs.

Batemans Bay: Watergardens. Lots of flying foxes, which are very large. I think their size suggests grey headed flying foxes, even though they are rarer than little red flying foxes. They are roosting at the Watergardens just behind woolies. Chestnut teal are also there.

At the YHA lots of rainbow lorikeets with dy, YTBC, satin bowerbirds and lots of new holland and little wattlebirds.

Burrewarra Point. Heaps of little wattlebirds, new holland honeyeaters and some spinebills. A sparrowhawk went zooming through. Banksias are not yet flowering except for B marginata. YFH passing over with silvereyes.

Guerilla Bay itself: Right in the town itself I was surprised to flush a wonga pigeon, which then just sat on the lines and watched me while I watched it.

 

gotta go.
