FNCB iNaturalist's Journal

On the 9th October, 2022, @enfieldservices led members and friends of FNCB on a tour of the Bird Paddock and the Jubilee Block at Clarkesdale Bird Sanctuary.

Highlights included many flowering orchids and buds of many others to come; nesting sites of grey goshawks, sacred kingfishers, and striated pardalotes; and many other birds and flowering plants.

You can see all the observations made that day here.

Thanks once again to @enfieldservices for another wonderful field trip.

The Great Southern BioBlitz is just a few days away. Observations made in the southern hemisphere between 28th-31st October count.
