It's Wrensday - enjoy this male Superb Fairywren in his winter outfit.
during non mating season the males will change their colourful attire for a more camouflage brown, so they don't constantly have to be on the look out for predators.
Clever little birds

You put your Left foot in, and you shake it all about.

White-Throated Honeyeater. These pretty little birds are quite prolific in South East Queensland, and I see them a lot around home. They like to feed in the tops of the gum trees and tend to gather in groups

Called a Common Bronzewing, but anything but common with the beautiful iridescent patches on her wing.

Happy Wrensday - Red-Backed Fairywren. Brisbane Valley Rail trail Fairneyview Qld.

This cute little guy is a male Spotted Pardalote - Image taken at Redwood Park at the base of the Toowoomba Range in QLD Australia, a wonderful conservation park with walking tracks and a picnic ground. There are many species of birds in good numbers - I have added this park to my favourite birding spots and will be visiting regularly.
While I know these birds are around my local area, as I hear them regularly, I have yet to actually see one, as they tend to hang out in the tops of the gum trees.

Long Billed Corella Fernvale - easily recognised by it's long bill, obviously, and the red markings around face and neck, notably the red cut throat mark under the chin.
These birds are quite common in my local area, but I don't often get them to my property so was a nice opportunity to get some shots when a few of them turned up to ravage my corn.

Hi Friends, I'm back after a 6 month hiatus.
I will try and post as often as I can, but my personal life has become more demanding so might not be as much as I used to.

Meanwhile - Happy Wrensday.
Enjoy this little Female Red-Backed Fairywren, with a bonus little frog

By far one of the highlights from our trip to Outback Qld was seeing Budgerigars in the wild. We found a large body of water just off the side of the highway as we were leaving Charlotte Plains - it wasn't very deep but was attracting many species of parrots and waterbirds, including thousands of Budgerigars. Sadly this impromptu wetland will only last a couple of weeks before drying up.

"In the Rain"
Last year I entered these 4 images into the Australian Photographer of the year competition, not expecting too much, as there are a lot of entries in the Nature Category.
Well the results were out today, and I ended in the Top 50.
So I'm feeling a little bit chuffed.

Australian Mallee Ringneck Parrot - Charlotte Plains Outback Qld

Happy Wrensday to all from this little lady.
White Winged Fairywren Female - Oakey Queensland

Greater Bluebonnet - Captured at Charlotte Plains (Outback Qld) over Christmas.
This was my first time seeing one of these birds and I only saw it for a few seconds. Luckily I managed to snap a few pictures before it took off. It was with a mate that stayed further back behind more sticks.

Red Rumped Parrot captured at Westmar rest stop on our way to Outback Qld.

Eastern Yellow Robin - Captured at Miala Picnic Grounds Mt Glorious.
These little birds are quite friendly and will actually follow you around to see what you are doing. The proverbial sticky beak.

Just checking to make sure everyone is ready for whatever 2023 throws at them. 😄

Sulphur Crested Cockatoo - Backyard (roof gutter to be exact)

Happy New Year everyone.

Just by a exercising a bit of observation, you can see some amazing things.
Recently, I was lucky enough to witness a male Black Shouldered Kite swooping in to mate his partner.
This pair has already raised 1 chick to adulthood earlier this year, and had 3 chicks that had just fledged the nest, but still dependant on their parents.
Given that she has already raised 2 clutches, I completely understand the protests from the female.

Lewin's Honeyeater spotted while out walking.
I had heard the distinctive machine gun call so was on the lookout for this guy. Lucky for me he was in a tree, right beside the road I was walking down.

Happy Wrensday from these 2 guys
Male Superb Fairywrens - Brisbane Valley Rail Trail Fairneyview Queensland

A Pale Headed Rosella feeding on Dandelion flowers - Fernvale
I spied this beauty feeding on the side of a kangaroo trail and managed to creep within 5m to get this shot. He/she wasn't bothered by my presence and just kept snacking
EDIT - I have been informed, several times, that the w**d is a thistle rather than a dandelion. I can only say that I don’t know w**ds as well as I know birds 😂

Sometimes everything just comes together, and you get the perfect light, with the subject looking into the camera and the added bonus of a pleasing background.

Sacred Kingfisher - Fernvale Queensland.
One of Australia's forest dwelling Kingfishers, this little bird does not need to live near a body of water, nor does it specifically eat fish as the name suggests, but mainly dines on insects and crustaceans. They are currently breeding in the local area.

Brahminy Kite - Adult and I think a Juvenile/Fledgling (correct me if I'm wrong) - Bribie Island Qld

Taken from quite a distance so is cropped in a fair bit.

23/11/2022

Quintessentially Australian - Rainbow Lorikeet on a Banksia Flower.
Not sure how I got this almost painterly look, but very happy with the effect.

22/11/2022

It's Wrensday in Australia, so enjoy this image of a Superb Farirywren chasing a small insect. He was so intent on the bug that he nearly ran into me 😁

15/11/2022

It's Wrensday!
Happy humpday.
Superb Fairywren - female, Brisbane Valley Rail Trail - Qld Australia
Edit - it has kindly been pointed out to me that this is an uncoloured male, and on closer inspection I concur. I really need to pay more attention to my subjects 😁

02/11/2022

Plum-headed Finch - Captured on the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail in Qld last year. I saw the pair several times over a couple of weeks
I haven't seen any in the local area this year so I am guessing they came in early last year before the drought broke looking for food and water.
There was a time when these birds were abundant in the Fernvale area.

Black Shouldered Kite on a dismal afternoon on the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail at Fairneyview Qld.
I was playing with slow shutter speed trying to capture the wing motion as seen in the second photo, when the bird gave me a look over its shoulder.
