Thank you Rosemary…we also have an OB Oriole at Giralang Pond at the moment it
is vocal all day. Along with what might be a breeding pair of the pied
cormorants, the Great Heron, White faced Heron , unusually no Night Herons.
Since Saturday the reed warbler , Grey Fly Catcher , Willie ,many swallows a
striated Pardelote and today the first PallidCuckoo.Friar Bird had one
fleeting visit and I thought I heard Golden Whistler and the Triller on the
weekend but cannot confirm .
and the mico bats grazing the compost at dusk then the brief call of the Banjo
and the all nighter spotted grass frog…
We are a lucky lot
