This day was a bit like the previous one – an early morning bird survey followed by a visit to another location. This post will just deal with the bird survey – along The Greenway between Taverners Hill and Hawthorne Light Rail Stations.

We had heard reports of White-plumed Honeyeaters being seen recently near Taverners Hill Station, and with some careful looking we spotted some.

There also the usual Superb Fairy-wrens –

And Bulbuls –

There was a large flock of Silvereyes –

And a few New Holland Honeyeaters –

And the usual Noisy Miners –

It was much quieter out of the Sun along the path. Here is a Red Wattlebird –

And this is a White-browed Scrubwren –

Near Marion St, a pair of Magpie Larks –

On the canal we saw a juvenile Striated Heron –

And further along an Olive-backed Oriole –
