On Sunday morning the friends of Hanging Rock were joined by members of a bird watching group for the annual bird identification walk. It was great opportunity to meet knowledgeable and enthusiastic bird watchers - which I'm definitely not. However, I used the occasion to take photographs of the splendid flora, fauna, geological formations, and infrastructure of the Hanging Rock Reserve.

The Hanging Rock reserve boasts well over 100 different types of birds and of these 39 are listed here; of course, not all were sighted, but many were. Wikipedia has articles for each of the 39 birds and for many more not listed here.
