Brown Cuckoo Dove

["North Head Bird Surveys" <>]

After the recent (and locally abundant) rain near Sydney I went walking in
Sclerophyll forest along the sphinx track from Bobbin Head to St Ives. Not
alot of activity, but we were lucky with a few species and lack of other
walkers.

Golden whistler in very high numbers, variegated fairy-wrens, fan-tailed
cuckoos (heard not seen) and one Brown cuckoo dove along the drainage line.
Down near the marina were the usual common spp, and dollarbird, koel and
welcome swallows nesting/roosting in the vertical drainage pipes under small
traffic bridge over the creek.
