Tuggeranong Hill was surveyed on Friday 2 December. It was an overcast, mild and still morning. Many of the sites were heavily infested with St John’s Wart and other weeds, but it was nice to see that a couple
were mainly covered in Australian wildflowers. Highlights were a Brown Goshawk,
Nankeen Kestrel, three Gang-gang Cockatoos and a pair of Leaden Flycatchers
building a nest, although of these observations, only the Gang-gang Cockatoos were on a sub-site. Other breeding records were:
Australian Magpie and Pied Currawong feeding young; Nineteen species were observed during the surveys, and an additional 20 between sub-sites.
