Hi All.
Have had some unusual sightings over the last week in Mulgoa Valley
in the vicinity of Mayfair Rd. A single SEA EAGLE near a dam on the E side of
Mulgoa Rd near the Waste Services, a PAINTED BUTTON QUAIL crossing Mayfair Rd
about half way up the hill, nesting KING PARROTS with cheeping young in a
branch hollow on Mulgoa Creek, the resident pair of JACKY WINTERS at the top
of Mayfair and a single on Mulgoa Creek, ROSE ROBIN on the creek, a lone
WHITE-PLUMED HONEYEATER, rarely sighted here, feeding on banksias in a planted
native garden, BOOBOOK OWL on the drive. Plus the usual thirty odd spp ranging
from Sparrowhawk through House Sparrows, Australasian Grebes, Moorhens and
Purple Gallinules, Cattle Egrets, to Satin Bowerbirds, and an occasional
FANTAILED CUCKOO calling. Pied Currawongs making a terrible mess with
regurgitated White Cedar berries.
Cheers Michael
