So much birdlife // at 00:00
A weekend away from Melbourne down along the coast, there's just so much birdlife compared with in the city. I still saw the airborne rats that are the Sparrows, Starlings and Indian mynahs, but off the top of my head I can remember: Magpie (Gymnorhina tibicen), Pied Currawong (Strepera graculina), Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae), Crimson Rosella, King Parrot (Alisterus scapularis), Sulfer-crested cockatoo (Cacatua galerita), Mudlark, Wood duck (Chenonetta jubata), Black duck (Anas superciliosa), Dusky Moorhen, Pied cormorant, Little black cormorant, Black cormorant, Silver gull (Larus novaehollandiae), Mystery grey seabird, Pacific gull (Larus pacificus), White ibis, Superb blue wren, New-holland honeyeater, Brown thornbill, Black-shouldered kite, Black hawk, Nankeen kestrel, White egret.
