I took myself on my MTB down Plains Rd and Pollack Rd Hoskinstown this morning. As usual a good range of birds were seen. The obvious highlight of the seen birds was 10 Gang-gangs munching on Snow Gum (E. pauciflora) nuts. They have been submitted to the survey. At least 16 Dusky Woodswallows, with several of them being juveniles. 8 Diamond Firetails with a few young in the mix. 18 Eastern Rosellas and 13 European Goldfinches. Back at the Briars-Sharrow end of the road, 2 Golden-headed Cisticolas and 2 Brown Quail. In total 26 species.
Vanished from the snow gum remnant were Tree Martins, WW Trillers and WB Woodswallows.
