Australia Part 58: Birding off the beaten birding-track & snorkeling Five Day Creek Nov 9 #canon_r5

This day we had the same itinerary as Nov 8: birding along Nulla Nulla Creek Rd & Postmans Trail. The difference today is that I spent one hour snorkeling in Five Day Creek too. We also spent most of the day socialising with my friends. Along Postmans we had a stop along the top of the ridge and saw Red-browed Treecreeper and heard a singing Lyrebird a bit down the slope. Never saw it. We had some nice Lepidoptera encounters as well. 00:00 Info & itinerary map 00:16 Quick morning birding around Bellmeadow Homestead 01:31 Driving & birding along Nulla Nulla.
