Observation details
Located the female first at the Wattle Rd pond, low down in casuarinas at the end of the playing fields. Overall dark, contrasty look had me interested, taking as many photos as possible, however, the bird wasn't particularly cooperative. A few minutes later, on my way back to the car l located the singing male, about 60m away from the female, in a small area of sheltered, dark vine thicket adjacent to what is now the College car park at Wattle Rd. Male showing well and calling continuously, giving the full repertoire. Happy this is a female Satin shown here, especially given the proximity to a male.
