| Mon 25 | | Scarlet Honeyeater
Pilliga National Park--Gilgai Flora Reserve | | After an earlier sighting by A. Rudder (on ebird) at the Pilliga SCA, now Scarlet Honeyeaters were found in the Gilgai section of Pilliga NP, some 30 km S of Wee Waa, at the northern end of the Pilliga Forest. Audio was recorded and is included with the ebird list. This is the first predominantly coastal species that I have found this far west in a long time. Lots of Mugga Ironbarks are in flower in the area, attracting all kinds of nectarivores (dominated by thousands of Noisy Friarbirds). eBird checklist | | Michael Dahlem 26/5 #257032 |
| | Magpie Geese
Wetland behind grain receival complex at Narromine |
| | About 200 Magpie Geese at this site, which is now about 75% full of water as I went past this afternoon. Clearly visible from the Tullamore Rd near rail crossing. These birds have been a common visitor to this site in recent years and even nested here a couple of years ago. | | Warren Chad 25/5 #257024 |
