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.

This is the second of two postings featuring the Low Head Fog Alarm in Tasmania.

Low Head, Tas. Fog Alarm—video
And now for something completely different. With links to other sites about the fog alarm.
This is the first of two postings featuring the Low Head Fog Alarm in Tasmania.This is a low quality video to give a feel for where the fog horn is situated. It starts with the end of one blast and after about a minute the next 3-part blast is heard.
The fog horn was restoted by local people who each Sunday at 12 noon start up the engine; fill the tanks with compressed air and let it rip for 5 minutes.
