Come join me for a virtual bird walk at Sandy Camp Rd Wetlands, a haven for bird watchers.
It's got a diverse range of Australian bird species, from butcherbirds, kingfishers, fairywrens, waterfowl, birds of prey and many more!
Those wanting to learn more Australian bird calls, I highlight several calls throughout the video. Plus, there's a few hidden species for you to listen out for :-)
Hidden Treats (Easter Eggs):
08:24 Australasian Figbird calling
10:40 Torresian Crow calling
13:08 Scarlet Honeyeater calling
16:06 A single "mew" of a double-barred finch as I'm saying "walk" (I admit this is a difficult one)
19:13 Shining Bronze-Cuckoo calling
20:09 In the tallest tree on the left, you'll see a bright yellow patch of foliage. That's mistletoe.
And there is one other unmentioned bird species calling, but you'll need to be a pro birder to be able to ID it. Clue: this bird is in the Meliphagidae taxonomic family 😉
