Adventure: Scattergood Reserve, St Helens Park - 14/05/2022

A guided walk for beginner birdwatchers (aka "bird listeners", lol).
Not very successful in photographing the birds, and I certainly need more practice with binoculars. It was enjoyable being in a group learning about and seeing the migration of birds. With some bonus animal traces including koala tracks and poop!
