The first in a series on beautiful Beowa National Park, formerly Ben Boyd National Park, located on the far south coast - the Sapphire Coast - of NSW, Australia. The park is made up of two huge areas that respectively sit to the north and south of the port of Eden.
We head to Haycock Point in the northern precinct, 17km south of Pambula Village and 15km north of Eden. It's a fantastic location for landscape photography and I've visited many times for that reason, but this time, we're looking for birds.
It's a bird photography bonanza at Haycock with quite a few different species and a nice backdrop of coastal heath and Banksia.
And there's one particular bird that is a real feature of this place!
A few challenges with the light conditions on this perfect winters day, but what a great place to enjoy a walk and the sunshine even without the photography.

Your videos are terrific, your still shots are spectacular. I have stayed at Tom Groggin camping ground (Kosciuszko National Park) numerous times and have heard the Whipbird, but have never managed to see one. Last time there saw 23 different birds including a male Satin Bower Bird. Looking forward to Part 2 of Beowa. Cheers.

Thank you Bruce 😊 I love the male Satins, stunning birds. Everyone knows that distinctive Whip bird call but he can be hard to spot!

The whip birds are pretty cool. Not the flashiest or most exotic looking birds, but I like that. Lorikeets or cockatoos or emus or kookaburras are the Australian birds we Americans see on nature documentaries or in zoos, and understandably so! We don't have anything like them here. Well, we have kingfishers, but ours don't laugh. But the consequence is that the more run-of-the-mill little species like whip birds are totally overlooked. I've never heard of them before now. It looks... ordinary, if that makes sense. Familiar. Basically a cardinal or blue jay with a muted color scheme. Like something I could see in my own yard. Seeing footage like this really helps me get a sense of the real Australia, not just the memes and sensationalized exotic stuff. Of course, then you film some outlandish looking cockatoos and it's wacky Oz again, haha!

They are very cool, most Aussies wouldn't know what they look like, but everyone on the East Coast knows the call. Not our most exotic bird but a great character bird and reasonably common in the undergrowth of the forest and the odd garden in regional areas. I love their little mohawk hairdo's 😁

Great videos Sonia, I particularly like how you give information about the location if others want to visit. I came across your Chanel when you had done Cape Conran, we are EG locals and have a house at Marlo. It just added to my excitement that your were a birder and shoot with OM1, love to catch up if your in the area again.

Oh I love Cape Conran and Marlo. I'll definitely be going again in coming months! If you are on instagram send me a message sometime 😊

Another fabulous video. I loved your shots of the Whipbirds, but truly amazed they would come out in fairly open shrub layer as where I live near Brisbane they are almost always tucked away in dense shady shrub which along with their elusive behaviour makes getting a good shot near impossible. Still searching for my first good shot, maybe I need to do a road trip your way!

They are notoriously difficult to get out in the open! This is the best spot I've found by far - and definitely road trip worthy in the summer months! Wait til you see the southern precinct of Beowa it's x10 for birds 🤩 Video coming up in coming months 👍
