On the second return from Wyreema I was in the loco to observe and to assist with firing. I recorded this in a spare half minute. It was shortly after leaving Wyreema. The voices you hear are from the two-way radio which is used to communicate with Train Control. They give the driver details of when and how far we can travel.

This shows the two gum trees, 1 in my place and the other just over the back fence, and odd bird behaviour. There were many crows and many currawongs flying in and out of the tree. There were also at least 2 pee wees. They were calling loudly and continuously from around 7am until nearly 8am. I don't know why this was happening. It seemed some sort of confrontation. If that is correct it could be that the currawongs and pee wees which have both nested in these trees were wanting the crows to keep away. Suggestions welcome in the comments. April 2023.
