This was a fairly short trip – along the Cooks River between Illawarra Road and Gough Whitlam Park looking for birds to photograph.
I was looking for Tawny Frogmouths and Sacred Kingfishers, but I didn’t spot any. Here are some of the birds I did see –
Pacific Black Duck
Dusky Moorhen
At Gough Whitlam Park, I came across this dead Blue-tongued Skink –
Australasian Figbird
I did spot a Striated Heron lurking in the mangroves –
Little Black Cormorant
Willie Wagtail
