Superb walk at Mulligans this morning. More than 80 Straw-necked Ibis grazing the paddock beyond the big dam. A glimpse of a Grey Butcherbird,

good view of a Fan-tailed Cuckoo

 

 

 

and then, to our delight, less than 100m from an exit gate, a Bettong bounded from under our feet and off into undergrowth about 20 m away (very much a first time for us)!

 

Now for a sighting of New Holland Mouse - the latest re-introduction? (http://www.mulligansflat.org.au/reintroductions.html)
