User's notes

Spotted this one as we were driving out of Booroomba Rocks and it didn't sprint off into the scrub. It was happy to scratch around while I waited for it to move into some of the shards of light that still remained as the sun went behind the mountain. I think there was a second one a little further up the walking track, but I only heard it and didn't see it so can't confirm.
