Tempting as it was to post the Family Guy link here…this post is of far greater cultural import than such frivolity.

Last Sunday, we travelled up to the Blue Mountains after church. The Blue Mountains are one of our favourite places on earth, and are an easy drive.

Diane has some pics from the trip over at her blog, but I’m including one little bit of the day here.

We went to visit Cahill Lookout to view the early stages of sunset, before we headed on to Echo Point for the rest of it.

I’d never been to this lookout before, and both Diane and I were impressed with the amount of birdlife that was evident through the song…even though we had difficulty spotting many birds at all.  They were all very well hidden in the scrub, though a few did make themselves known to us.

Some of said song is captured in this short vlog….though perhaps it should be a slog since the its mainly the song and not the video.  Anyhoo, enjoy the weird and wonderful world of Australian birdsong.  It’s shorter and less melodic than I would have liked…because the battery went flat literally seconds before beautiful melody was breaking out. D’oh!
