Birding in the Royal National Park, Sydney

Royal National Park, south of Sydney

Our holiday in New South Wales

September 2007

After morning tea we went for a walk along Lady Carrington Drive in the Royal National Park south of Sydney. I deliberately chose this road because on our last visit in 2007 we saw a Lyrebird walking along the road. It seemed quite at ease walking a few metres away from us. I guess it is so used to walkers and cyclists using this track that it feels quite at home in their presence. I was disappointed that we didn’t see a Lyrebird this time around. I did get to see a Rock Warbler. Not as good as a Lyrebird but still a good sighting all the same.
