Gang-gang Cockatoo. One of seven seen feeding together along the Budderoo track.

Southern Emu-wren, Budderoo

Grey Currawong. My first for NSW seen about 2-3Kms along the Budderoo track.

First light at Barren Grounds

Copperhead(?), Budderoo

Wombat. My first sighting today at Barren Grounds, shot before sunrise (thanks to a noisy 6400 ISO).

The heath was buzzing today! 27 degrees and no wind made a real contrast to last weekend's failed efforts at the same spot. The only thing missing was a Ground Parrot sighting.
