Annie & I, & Keith Brandwood were shown a Noisy
Pitta at Taronga Park zoo, Sydney at 11 o'clock today. Dion said it has
been recorded intemittently for the last month. It is a juvenile bird and
definitely not zoo stock. It is about the 5th record for Sydney and my
first. Tony Palliser saw it last week.
It has been seen mostly around midday around the back of the White Tiger
and Snow Leopard enclosures. We watched it hopping up the sandstone and
feeding for about 10 minutes.
Admission to the zoo is $16 plus $5 for parking. Good luck.
