No need to be so wintry blue! Today's little walk at Gudgenby in Namadgi
revealed W-T eagles doing their thing, a brown falcon, scarlet robins of both
sexes, and a nice flock of brown-headed honeyeaters. And, the rangers have
done wonders getting the rabbit population under control.
As for Brown Goshawks, having been seriously swooped by them, I don't blame
garden birds for fleeing!
Cheers
Matthew
