This was a busy day. I started off with the local bird survey along The Greenway. The group met at 7:30 am at Taverner’s Hill Light Rail Station and then from there continued along the Greenway to Hawthorne Light Rail Station.
At Taverner’s Hill, Spotted Pardalote were seen, but I was not able to get any good photos this time. Down along the path, we spotted a Grey Fantail –
And a Pied Currawong that was collecting nesting material –
Further along, we saw a White-browed Scubwren –
And here is one of a number of Superb Fairy-wrens –
In a nearby tree were a number of Australasian Figbirds –
And near Hawthorne, we spotted the Brown Goshawk perched in its usual tree.
Here it is ducking to avoid a harassing Magpie.
And it decided to leave.
A White-faced Heron was perched on a lamp –
A Pelican was swimming in the Hawthorne Canal –
And a distant flock of Little Corellas flew past –
Later in the day, I ddi some more bird photography at Barton Park.
