Quite a few Crimson Rosellas around - this adult was demonstrating bathing techniques to a juvenile - The Superb Fairy-wren males are in their breeding colours - While the female Little Wattlebird has been catching lots of bugs - hmm, wonder why she needs extra protein...? Finally, Old Man Banksia has taken a bit of a beating from frequent Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo visits to feed. The male here (males have the pink eye ring) has been appointed look-out, so while the others munch away he keeps an eye on me as I watch from the verandah. A sudden move on my part, he'll sound the alarm and they'll be off - very nervy for large birds with nothing much to fear except land clearing.

The photographer must be a bird to capture so spell-bindingly the sensation of birdiness.
