Bicentennial Park, Homebush NSW

["Alistair McKeough" <>]

Had another nice morning at Bicentennial Park yesterday, seeing 41 species
in a little over an hour.

Highlights were spangled drongo (my first in BP), two black-shouldered kite
hovering above the bird hide, great egret and white faced heron both in very
nice plumage, red-rumped parrot in the usual spot near Lake Belvedere and
very good views of red-browed finch. There were also many black faced
cuckoo-shrike around, with flocks of up to 20 birds moving about.

The pond in front of the hide is quite dry and all of the birds have
retreated to the distant end. Conversely, the levels seem up in Lake
Belvedere.
