Boomi, NSW, July 2009

In July 2009 we spent a few days at Boomi, a small town, population 90, near the Qld border. Boomi has a swimming pool complex which includes a hot artesial spa pool that would be the envy of many larger towns. The community run caravan park and store with powered van site $10 plus use of pools $5, for 2 people! The 7 km drive/walking trail of named trees is very interesting.

Here are my birdsong recordings and photos from there. Click on the title of this blog to go to my web album of these pictures.

Moree, NSW

June 2009 Bird-song recordings and photos.

We are staying at the Gwyder Caravan Park for a few weeks and enjoying their four hot artesian pools. The fifth pool opens in a couple of weeks.

Birds are prolific in this park and the Pied Butcher-bird's various flute like melodious call is a highlight but the bird is proving difficult to photograph. Other birds featured today are the Red-rumped Parrot, Crested Pigeon, Mallee Ringneck Parrot and Bluefaced Honeyeater.
