Warks Rd/Blundells Creek Rd

Sunday 18 January 07:30
Sandra Henderson

The plan for this outing is to walk down Blundells Creek Road and then along Warks Road, in particular to search for wet forest birds.  This will involve a car shuffle so that we do not have to walk back up Blundells Creek Road.  However, road closures, as have happened in recent years, may change these arrangements closer to the time.

We hope to see Satin Flycatcher, Eastern Shrike-tit, Rose Robin, Rufous Fantail, Red-browed Treecreeper, and at least hear Pilotbird, Wonga Pigeon and Superb Lyrebird, as well as see a variety of honeyeaters, whistlers and parrots.

Bring morning tea, lunch, plenty of water, a hat and wear suitable footwear for a downhill gravel road.

Departure time is 7.30am from Stromlo Forest Park Memorial carpark, off Swallowtail Road, Wright; the entry to the carpark is at the roundabout where Peter Cullen Way meets Swallowtail Road. Return time by about 2.30pm.   Suggested contribution to drivers is $10 per person; please bring the correct money.

Maximum group size is 16, so please register early at shirmax2931@gmail.com with your name, mobile number and name and number of an emergency contact.
