A Sandy Beach Almanac



You've landed at Sandy Beach, NSW, Australia: Lat. -30.15331, Long. 153.19960, UT +10:00 – local map & zoom Google map. I live in a cabin on this beach, 25 kilometres north of the traffic and shops of Coffs Harbour, 600 km north of Sydney. My intention is to post observations of Nature and life within 1 km (1,000 paces) of my South Pacific home.

Grey Butcherbird visited me

This Grey butcherbird came to visit this week, parking himself in the frangipani outside my door and singing what is one of the loveliest Australian birdsongs. Like most butcherbirds, he wasn't terribly afraid of me, though of course I couldn't get so near as to get a close-up shot and my camera is not built for good zooming. This was the best I could do.
