Visit to Nurragingy Reserve – 11 October 2024

Nurragingy Reserve at Doonside is one of the places I like to visit regularly, but it had been a while since my last visit. So I thought it about time to see what was there.

I had a very good visit. The highlight was probably some noisy Sacred Kingfishers. Here are some of the birds I photographed –
