The next Wednesday walk will be at Jerrabomberra Hill (Mount Jerrabomberra?) in the Jerrabomberra area of Queanbeyan. Meet at 9am at the carpark (see below).

Access via Tompsitt Drive off Lanyon Drive. Take first left off the big roundabout, into Limestone Drive, then a left at Halloran Drive. Jerrabomberra Hill Road is off to the right along that road. There is a parking area next to the locked gate into the reserve (some informal carpooling would be good because it’s not a huge carpark!). There is limited on-street parking, and when I was there yesterday (a Wednesday) some bins were out, so on-street parking may not be a good idea.

The road to the top of the hill is a very pleasant, easy walk through woodland with lots of stringybark, other eucalyptss, acacias, and quite a lot of flowering at present. Several mixed flocks with thornbills, Weebills, Scarlet Robins and pardalotes were seen yesterday, and around 30 species altogether.. Keep your fingers crossed for a non-foggy morning!
