Greetings,
It was a great pleasure to see a fledgling Rufous Owl with what I presume to
be its female parent. After the cyclone it has been so easy to feel
depressed but wonderful to see this breeding success. The Barking Owls which
used to call my place home are now roosting in the middle of Yungaburra.
Some trees which had just set fruit before the cyclone are now flowering
again or will be soon. Fruit which survived the cyclone though is dropping
from many trees as they attempt to recover from the stress. Some of this is
providing food but much is just too immature and rotting. The Pied Monarchs
at the Curtain Figtree have been much easier to see than when the area is
fully vegetated.
Regards,
Alan Gillanders
