Beautiful Native Birds at the Rogers Reserve

23rd October 2018

Just a few photos I managed to take while doing fauna surveys and rubbish collection at the Charles & Motee Rogers Bushland Reserve at Highfields today.  Many other bird species were heard that I didn't manage to photograph as they were too elusive.
