About 1.30 pm today, I believe I saw a satin bowerbird
(female) not far from the edge of Tuggeranong Hill. It was on the ground
foraging amongst quite thick grasses and some rocks, then flew in to the
trees. I can't think of anything else as was definitely green on top and
brown/white underneath and was of a medium size. Did not see a black male nearby
only another brown bird of similar size whizzing by but not up close. I have
never seen one before. Also lots of parrots (eastern and crimson rosellas in the
park now, including numerous juveniles), plus some soaring raptors (saw a wedge
tail the other day), maggies, currawongs, galahs, sulphur crested cockatoos and
crested pigeons. The little corellas have not been seen by me for some time now
(here or in my yard).
