Sights & sounds on a walk through Gembrook Park yesterday. Even managed an audio bomb from Puffing Billy.

Our divergence into summer was brief. Usual transmission has been restored. Here’s what I did yesterday - a meander along Walsdorf Creek in Harkaway. Only disappointment: no Powerful owls.

Away on the “2025, Full width ½ the height” tour where I came across a babbly flock of cockatiels … they do grow on trees…

Too wet for a walk so here’s a composite video cobbled from several stills captured yesterday of an Eastern whipbird. These forest floor dwellers do present quite the challenge.

Morning Melbourne! 🌬️

A brilliant day for twitching yielded a close encounter with a Superb Lyrebird. These guys are masters of mimicry & I’ve used the captured grainy images (very low light) over a soundtrack taken previously in Gembrook Park.
