2007 March 8 - Hindhede Park

Saw an orange-headed thrush opposite the outdoor classroom.

At the quarry look-out point, saw a pied fantail building nest on the dried branches of a fallen Acacia tree.

A male common flameback flew across to a tall tree on the right and pecked around the hole in the trunk. About 10 minutes later, a female joined him.
Seconds later, the male flew off. The female took position and started pecking.
Not sure if they were trying to start a nest.
