I heard about the Molonglo Gorge Nature Reserve (near Kowen Forest) as a place to go to experience nature as well as to see some fabulous birdlife. The suggestion was absolutely correct. The reserve is not far from the city, with a convenient walking track running alongside the Molonglo River. The track was rocky in parts but well maintained. I did not go all the way to the end as I ran out of time taking photographs but I know I will head back at some stage. I also think there is another track higher up the gorge wall that may be of interest to follow. It was a refreshing location to visit with the Molonglo River a pleasant walking companion. The White-eared Honeyeater I photographed seemed used to humans nearby but enjoyed always being in shadows, hence I am really not happy with the shots I have of it. I want to spend more time here one day to obtain a better photograph of the honeyeater as well as to really see what birds I can photograph. I hope you enjoy the pictures.
