While at Mitchell Park (60 kms NW of Sydney CBD ) on Monday , I heard what I 
thought was a Bower Bird hissing. It turned out to be a GST with food in its 
mouth. As we looked it flew low along a narrow path obviously doing its 
equivalent of a broken wing trick - continuing to hiss . I've never seen a Grey 
Shrike Thrush do this before.

Also this morning at Middle Creek ( Narrabeen Lake )( 30 kms N of Sydney CBD. 
The Red-chested Button Quail was still present as was a Black Bittern in the 
same spot.
