Pir’ri Reserve (Woodland Park)

On our second attempt to find another double-hyphenated bird, the elusive and endangered black-breasted button-quail, we only managed to see a rufous fantail and a mob of thornbills, apart from the usual Lewin’s honeyeaters, corellas, noisy cockies and lorikeets. 

 

There are many overhangs, so it's good to look up as well as down as you walk.

It was still hot and steamy but there was an amazing array of funghi, from deep crimsons to oranges, yellows, creamy brown and brilliant white.

Some unusual plants grow here in the woodland, which we have yet to identify.  These vines have very interesting fruits.
