User's notes
I heard the calls of some Satin Bowerbirds but they were in an area of thick of shrubs so initially I could not see them. Eventually, one bird, then two, then three, flew to a more open tree and two of them ended up on an exposed branch that was covered in shadow. The bird lower down the branch was probably a juvenile because I noticed the other bird feed it.
