Dear Fellow Birders
Yesterday, I showed a birder from Boston a good selection of Sydney's
beautiful birds showing at the Royal NP (just south of . Those seen
included a great view of an Intermediate phase Grey Goshawk (white body
and grey wing's), 2 male Superb Lyrebirds displaying among other male
birds seen (this was not only a thrill to us birder's but to other
bushwalker's passing by as these 2 males were showing off for over half
an hour. The Royal N.P. is a often an easy place see these magnifcant
Lyrebird's) , a pair of Cicadabirds, a pair of Rose Robin's, Black-faced
Monarch's, Rufous Fantail's, Green Catbird's, Scarlet Honeyester's (many
bird's seen and heard along Lady Carrington Drive), Tawny-crowned
Honeyeater pair making a nest at Curra Moor's and Southern Emuwren pair
possibly also nesting.
We also went to Shell Pt later on in the afternoon, but the tide was 2
high but Ruddy Turnstone's and Curlew Sandpiper's aswell as Pied
Oystercatcher's were seen roosting on a barge. Brown Honeyeater's were
about in the Mangrove's.
That's all for now......
