I took this the other day from the wharf on the river. I thought it was a suitable photo for today as it is Mother's Day in Australia.
Happy Mother's Day to all mothers.
You wouldn't find me swimming in mid winter especially not this week when morning temperatures have dropped below zero most mornings. But these guys are here everyday.
This was taken just downstream of the last post. More on the bridge soon.
I caught up with this fellow striding through a park. I'm not sure what he is but his exaggerated movement got my attention.
I took this a couple of weeks ago. I haven't seen Swallows like this around here very often.
The quality may not be the best as it was taken at full zoom and hand held but still needed cropping a bit.
As I was getting breakfast this morning I could hear a continual racket on the verandah roof. It sounded like someone throwing gravel on to tin. Sandy kept running to the back door and giving a growl so I thought I better check it out.
This is what I found in the tree that partly shades the back of the house. I have seen Galahs here before but this is the first time I have caught Corellas feasting on the nuts. (The noise was discarded shells and other mess landing on the roof).
OK I know I have posted photos of these guys before but they keep jumping in front of my camera so what can I do?
A female(?) Blue Wren sighted in the yard yesterday.
I'm not sure if that's the correct collective noun for corellas but it seems to fit. I photographed this group of "Little Corellas" in the gulf country of north Queensland.
On my old blog I posted some photos of Blue Wrens that are often seen around the yard. However these guys are much less common. Occasionally they appear but I don't usually have a camera handy.
They are about the same size as the wrens but much calmer. The wrens on the same branch took off but these ones just posed for me.
