Back to the Landing Lights Wetland
With the forecast for rain later this week the best thing to do was to head out in the sunshine on Tuesday to have a better look at the Landing Lights Wetland, near Sydney Airport. This very productive site has quite a reputation and it proved a very worthwhile visit.
There were a number of Golden-headed Cisticolas calling and it looked like some nest building was underway.
Also calling was this Australian Reed-Warbler.
A feature of the site is the number of small birds including this Yellow-rumped Thornbill.
The honeyeaters were represented by a number of Brown Honeyeaters and there were also White-plumed Honeyeaters around.
A Yellow Thornbill, difficult to photograph as they prefer to frequent the tops of trees.
Also calling and making the briefest of appearances, the Buff-banded Rail.
