Bush-hen

Post by Bill Jolly »

Around 6.30pm on Saturday evening, 15 December, a Bush-hen began calling from the creek-bank close to the house.

This is the 5th consecutive year that this bird has turned up here in December. It is usually here through into January (last year being the exception) - but is rarely seen, usually calling from the thickest cover.
