I’ve been inspired by reports of the wonderful birding country in the eastern section of Gigerline Nature Reserve.  The walk is about 2km from the Highway to the river, and the same distance to return.  There is a hill to descend to the river, but the effort is worthwhile.  Great woodland and riverine birds have been seen here, including Yellow-tufted Honeyeaters and Southern Whitefaces. Meet at the old service station at Williamsdale (about 15km south of Tuggeranong on the Monaro Highway) at 8am.  Contact David Dedenczuk on 0417 222 154 or at ddedentz@bigpond.net.aufor more information.
