About 40 joined this outing. It was cloudy before 10:00, and very quiet. The highlight was the pair of Orange-bellied Leafbird that guard the flowering plants at the site just across the stream on Blue Walk. It was not until about 12:45 that we met a very big flock just outside picnic area. The best bird was a Sulphur-breasted Warbler. Good numbers of Pallas's Warbler and two Goodson's Leaf Warbler were also present.
