Birdlife

At the moment the Friar Birds are back, the poor things must rate highly as one of the ugliest birds there is and are certainly raucous, I noticed them coming back at about the same time Sprig started, they seemed to leave mid Autumn.

With so many flowering natives, the honeyeaters are prolific

Scarlet Honeyeater


Yellow Faced Honeyeater
Eastern Spinebill

Blue Faced Honeyeater


as well as a variety of other birds


Spangled Drongo

Australia King Parrot
Kookaburras on the Old Gum Tree
Fairy Wren
Red Browed Finch
Blue Billed Duck
Sacred Kingfisher
Azure Kingfisher
Just a small sample and one of the reasons I love living here.
