The next day I headed up to the Stirling Ranges. Around the campsite at the
Retreat was a pair of *Rufous Treecreepers which were very tame, hopping
right up to your feet. They were also nest building. It was reported
earlier
that somebody had been standing around and one of the Treecreepers starting
climbing up their leg! Added several birds to the list around the Retreat:
This makes me wonder what I was looking at when I was here. I must have
walked through this camping area at least five times in four days and did
not even hear them about. Obviously concntrating on something else.
As Stirling Ranges NP is a huge reserve, I assume they are found elsewhere
in the park. Are there other spots, particularly of Wandoo where they can be
seen in this Park?
Cheers,
Peter
