Better known for its surf, Bells Beach and the surrounding area offers some good birding along the foreshore and the roadside vegetation.
I had stopped by the side of the road near the bend where Bells Beach Road becomes Jarosite Road (View Map) to watch a mixed flock of honeyeaters flying back and forth between the coastal heath and a stand of eucalypts when a Rufous Bristlebird appeared immediately across the road from me.

I have seen Rufous Bristlebird regularly in the area (Pt Addis and Airey's Inlet) but never when I had the camera ready so this was another photographic first for me this August.

Apologies for the inconvenience but I have had to turn on word verification to avoid spam (I was getting 10-20 a week)
