What's on the morning menu?
Snail for White-browed Crake (Amaurornis cinerea).
Stillborn katydid(?) for Macleay's Honeyeater (Xanthotis macleayanus)
Red Tie Bush (Wikstroemia indica) fruit for Brown Cuckoo-Dove (Macropygia amboinensis)
And a feast in bulk, insects for the Cattle Egrets and the cane for us.
