A mated pair of tawny Frogmouths

Tawny #Frogmouths are #Australian nocturnal #birds that are often mistaken for owls. Although common, they are very well camouflaged, and this is the first time I've seen one in the wild. These two are a breeding pair.

This one made me feel uneasy, but that's what made it so memorable.

These little cuties caught me by surprise yesterday. Happy first day of spring :)

laughing Kookaburra

#kookaburras are the largest #kingfishers in the world, growing up to 47cm long and weighing around 300g. A true #Aussie icon, they are infamous for their laughing cackle, mocking you from afar.

Eastern spinebill hovering near a flower

Perhaps my favourite little visitor at the moment. The eastern Spinebill. They hover like hummingbirds, sipping at nectar

Crimson Rosella

Crimson Rosellas are very territorial and will chase away others that venture too close to their territory.

yellow faced honeyeater

This little yellow faced honeyeater likes singing 30 minutes before dawn because apparently 6am isnt early enough 😅

I *love* Kookaburras. Great photos :)

Silver eye

These pocket sized performers are only 11-13cm long and weigh about 10 grams. They're accomplished travellers, flying from #Tasmania to the mainland (about 250km!) A massive distance for such a tiny #birb. This photo was taken in the tree adjacent my yard, welcome neighbour! :)

Easter Spinebill

Meeting my new neighbours.
An eastern spinebill visited today. These little energetic birds can hover in mid-air while sipping nectar from flowers, just like a hummingbird.

Im moving house tomorrow, will really miss my little feathered friends and worry about Hoppy because it has been a harsh winter so far. Got some boxes of seed that I'll give to neighbours in the hope they might continue to feed them.

A Sakhalin Leaf Warbler perches on a mossy tree stump, surrounded by a vibrant green forest background with soft bokeh. The bird is facing left, showing its olive-brown upperparts and pale underparts. エゾムシクイが苔むした木の切り株にとまっている。背景は柔らかくぼけた緑の森で、鳥は左を向き、オリーブブラウンの背中と淡い腹部が見えている。

This bird is a Sakhalin Leaf Warbler. It sang right in front of me, so I can say that with confidence. But without the song, it’s really hard to tell! 😓 🪶
