I spent a nice day out at Penrith on the Nepean River near the weir photographing birds.
Here are some of the birds I saw –
Azure Kingfishers
I later spotted another further along the river.
Sacred Kingfishers
Laughing Kookaburra
Little Black Cormorant
Australasian Darters
Little Pied Cormorant
New Holland Honeyeaters
Restless Flycatchers
Willie Wagtails
Satin Bowerbirds
Dusky Woodswallows
Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike
Red-browed Finches
The above is a display of courtship.
Crested Shrike-tit
This bird was spotted by another bird photographer, part of a family group that visited the area. Thanks to her for pointing it out.
Eastern Spinebill
Rufous Whistler
Golden Whistler
Red-rumped Parrots
Common Blackbird
Bell Miners
As I was leaving the Reserve, I noticed some white bird poo on the path, and looked up in the tree above. I spotted a nest with two dead Noisy Miners hanging down. Strange.
It had been a nice visit.
