Hi everyone. This morning about 10am i went for a walk at Bullen Range just near the Kambah Pool carpark area (didn't venture far). There was one bird i can't identify, so am wondering if anyone could please lend a hand?
It was a single bird about the size of a treecreeper with solid brown wings (including underneath), light grey back and head, cream coloured striated chest (small dark flecks). Black beak and eye. It was hopping around in the canopies of the larger trees. It's call was a single, short, sort of low gravelly 'aaaggghhhhh' (like a disappointed silver gull, if you like). I thought it could be a brown treecreeper but after researching it i think maybe the call doesn't sound right? Any assistance appreciated.
Otherwise, i saw noisy friarbirds, the tawny frogmouth with it's 2 babies, lots of spotted pardalotes, striated thornbills, several OB orioles, lots of both types of rosella, cockatoos and galahs, maggies, grey fantails and superb wrens by the dozen, a pair of leaden flycatchers, a female mistletoe bird, and plenty of white throated gerygones.
Cheers, Joanne
