I was up early in the morning to get down to the Lang St Bridge over the Cooks River by 7 am in order to join the Mudlarks for the monthly bird survey. This month, the group was surveying downstream.

Here are some of the birds we saw –
Little Corellas

Some members of the group spotted a Long-billed Corella in the flock.
Grey Butcherbird

Eastern Rosella

This was one of four we spotted.
Australasian Figbirds

Red Wattlebird
This one has caught a cicada.

Striated Heron
Well done to the member of the group that spotted this juvenile Striated Heron.

Welcome Swallows
There were a lot of these sizing over the grass in the golf course.

Noisy Miners
