User's notes
In a tree towards the water tanks there was a single, possibly female, Satin Bowerbird. It stayed high in the tree and I did not hear any other bowerbird. I did occasionally hear the typical metallic like call these birds make as I was approaching the tree but I could not see if it was this bird calling.
