I took part in the bid survey along the Dulwich Hill section of The Greenway, early on Saturday morning. As usual, the group met outside the Waratah Mills Light Rail Station at 7:30 am.
While the group was gathering, we looked up and saw a flock of birds flying at high speed. They were White-throated Needletails.
They are a type of swift and fly around catching insects.
Meanwhile, we were being serenaded by the morning call if a Grey Butcherbird –
Red Wattlebird
Pacific Koel (juvenile) –
Australasian Figbird
New Holland Honeyeaters
Willie Wagtail
Silvereye
Superb Fairy-wren
Welcome Swallow
And as we finished off, we saw the White-throated Needletails again –
As usual, once the survey was finished, we headed to a local cafe for morning tea.
