User's notes
I heard the distinctive cry of a Satin Bowerbird, which had me hoping I would be able to snap a shot. I only saw one bird although I suspect another may have been there. It was a female that I think may be immature given the yellowish colour in its beak. It started on the ground but when it became aware I was around it took to a tree before hopping over to another tree. It was not there long before it flew off.
