Hi Laserchemisty!
It's good to see your observations from the Kuringa Woodland on CNM. I assume from some of your other photos that you're aware of the formation of the Kuringa Woodlands Landcare Group.
I've been in touch with Canberra Birds the ornithologists' email line to see if anyone in COG has a species list for the Kuringa birds.
CNM was suggested along with getting the place registered on eBird. But a family friend has offered to go back through his records and he'll come up with a species list for Kuringa.
This, in turn, can join the Landcare Group's documentation for the area.
Thanks for your interest,
Rosemary
