Moths around the Flame Robins at Cowra
The Flame Robins were out near Cowra in central New South Wales. With their main diet of insects they must have found a feast in what looked like a rather barren paddock. There were 13 Flame Robins in all plus a large contingent of Double-barred Finches and Yellow-rumped Thornbills. This gathering was repeated over several days, attracting a number of photographers who were taking part in the Cowra Woodlands Bird Program!
