Several mixed feeding flocks contributed to a good species list for the autumn surveys. 45 species seen in total. Dams within the reserve are very low.
Both Scarlet and Flame Robins were present at the top of the reserve, and a surprisingly large number (16) of Dusky Woodswallows were hawking near the quarry fence. In the same area a small flock of Silvereyes were feasting on fleabane, while the Eastern Rosellas preferred nearby thistles. The 4th of the six sites proved most species-rich, with three Grey Currawongs, a Scarlet Robin, two Speckled Warblers and a White-throated Gerygone in the mix.  At site five a few small groups of Yellow-faced Honeyeaters flew over during the survey period.
