I also saw a flock of about 20 Zebra Finches at Hickeys Park, Penrith about
four weeks ago. They were seen drinking from a temporary rain pool on the side of the bicycle track through the park. I'm not sure if they are seen there regularly, but I suspect they were attracted to the coastal side of the Range because of the widespread rains and abundance of seeding grasses.

Didn't find any, but saw a group of 10 Blue-faced Honeyeaters. This is quiet an increase in numbers from previous reports of 5 individuals. Looks like they could be a regular tick on the County List from now on. The valley had 100's of Noisy Friar birds and Musk Lorikeets feeding on flowering Swamp Mahogany, but couldn't find any Swift Parrots in amongst them. Don't forget the Swift Parrot and Regent Honeyeater survey next weekend. keith b the beautiful Hawkesbury 60km N/W of Sydney ==========www.birding-aus.org birding-aus.blogspot.com To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send the message: unsubscribe (in the body of the message, with no Subject line) to: birding-aus-requ...@vicnet.net.au ========== =============================== birding-aus.blogspot.com To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send the message: unsubscribe (in the body of the message, with no Subject line) to: birding-aus-requ...@vicnet.net.au =============================== =============================== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, You must Sign in before you can post messages.
