I like to thank everyone who replied to my
query below.
A species I did not mention below is the
Hall’s Babbler. If anyone know of good sites to see them around Bourke
please let me know.
As we will only be out a few days a trip,
we do not have time to go into QLD to Cunumulla which
from what I have heard is a reliable site for them.
Thanks
Edwin

Subject: RFI Cobar and Central
NSW
David Mitford and I are planning to
have a look around Cobar in central NSW next month for a few days. David hopes
to see a few new birds but I do not expect to see anything new myself though a
Grey Falcon would be a nice sight.
Does anyone know of good birding
sights around Cobar or Central NSW and to see
some interesting species such as:
Grey Falcon - has anyone seen any Grey
Falcon’s in Central NSW lately
besides the Lake Cargelligo birds?
Chestnut-breasted Quail-thrush
White-browed Tree-creeper
Chestnut-crowned Babbler (I recall seeing them myself
somewhere between Willcania and Cobar in the late 90’s but wondering if
there are some close spots to Cobar for seeing them)
Grey-fronted Honeyeater
Black Honeyeater
Striated Grasswren - does anyone have directions to
see the Striated Grasswrens in Yathong NR and how to get to Yathong NR?
Thanks
