Blue Mountains

Grey Shrikethrush

Male Satin Bowerbird
arrived at katoomba in the blue mountains this afternoon. Despite failing light and increasingly atrocious weather i manged a short walk around echo point and the famous three sisters and managed to pick up 6 very soggy new species for the trip list including eastern spinebill,and grey shrikethrush. Tommorrow i will be trying for pilotbird, rock warbler, crescent honeyeater, gang gang cockatoo and superb lyrebird, which could all prove difficult to see if the weather stays this poor.
