Hello all,
Was in Wallingat NP (north-east of Bulahdelah, 150 km north of
Newcastle, NSW) on Tuesday (29/3/05) with friends and did a bit of
nature-searching. We didn't do very well with the birds overall but saw
a few things of interest.
Despite 6 hours of searching we only found one Sooty Owl on Thomas Road
which flew overhead and then called once from a distance.
Other birds included White-throated Nightjar (1 bird sitting on Thomas
Rd, outside the forest), Rose Robin, Crested Shrike-tit and Large-billed
Scrubwren. Non bird findings of interest included Yellow-bellied Glider,
Sugar Glider, Haswell's Froglet (Paracrinia haswelli), Revealed Frog
(Litoria revelata), Great Barred Frog (Mixophyes fasciolatus) and the
Leaf-tailed Gecko (Saltuarius swainii).
Cheers
Mick
