After spending the early morning at the Cooks River, I headed home, and then in the afternoon, went on a visit to Sydney Olympic Park. There, I visited the Waterbird Refuge at Bicentennial Park, then went to Wentworth Common and The Brickpit.
I probably spent most of my time at Wentworth Common – and was on the lookout for Rails and Crakes. But did not spot any this visit (I may have left too early?). I did spot a nice pair of Brown Quail –
At the Waterbird Refuge, a lot of the birds were too far away for decent photos, so I did not even try to photograph them. Here are a few from that area –
Welcome Swallow
Black-fronted Dotterels
And from near the ship wrecks –
White-faced Heron
Superb fairy-wren
These are from or near The Brickpit –
Black Swans and Dusky Moorhen
Superb Fairy-wrens
And some from Wentworth Common –
Great Egret
Long-necked Turtle
Noisy Miner
And a few pictures of spiders –
