Some Birds of Strathalbyn, South Australia

Australian Wood Ducks

Last year I had a few weeks of work based at Strathalbyn in the Adelaide Hills. This delightful little town is about a half hour drive from my home in Murray Bridge.

During the time I was working there I usually had my lunch in a small park near the river. Previously we had enjoyed several picnic lunches in this park. The bird life there was always of interest. The trees had many Little Corellas, Galahs and Sulphur Crested Cockatoos. Along the river I often saw and heard the Clamorous Reedwarbler. In the park the Willie Wagtail would come and visit while I had my lunch.
