Two Pied Butcherbirds seen in Stony Creek Nature Reserve late this morning. They were together for some of the time but later one flew over the Murrumbidgee to the western side. Mostly feeding on grasshoppers, and occasionally calling. The first time I have seen more than one PB in the ACT.

 

The relevant section of the reserve is just south of Uriarra East Reserve, near where the Painted Honeyeaters were a couple of summers ago.

 

Also many Yellow-faced Honeyeaters on the move along Uriarra Rd and the Murrumbidgee Corridor, I’d estimate we saw a couple of thousand during the morning.
