A group of friends that normally walk with Brian Everingham on his NPA walks, decided to visit Oatley Park, as Brian was overseas, so not around to organise his usual walks. In the group were Judy, Sue, Deb, Derek and myself.
We had a great visit. As well as the view from the lookouts, we also saw a nice variety of birds. Here are some –
Sulphur-crested Cockatoo
Rainbow Lorikeets
Yellow Thornbill
Grey Fantail
Spotted Pardalote
Brown Thornbill
Rainbow Lorikeet
A very distant Great Egret with a fish (just dropped) –
Chestnut Teals
Brown Goshawk
WE also found a nice cluster of stinkhorns – Aseroë rubra
Variegated Fairywrens
Grey Fantail
Eastern Spinebill
Golden Whistler
Rose Robins
Brown Thornbill
Golden Whistlers
Rainbow Lorikeets
White-bellied Sea Eagle
Osprey
Caspian Terns
King Parrots
This was a very pleasant day.
