  1. Another dead tree fan!

    Another dead tree fan!

    Some female Black-faced Woodswallows were on yet another dead tree. I had to do a bit of work on this picture as it was very much against the light with hardly any detail.

    A queen

    Then his lady arrived. The female Regent Bowerbird has a black cap, replacing the male's red-spotted yellow crown. It is the main distinguishing feature from other similar looking females.

    Having a snoop

    Suddenly Hans and I noticed some different movement and there was a Lace Monitor (or Goanna) coming in for a drink. I've already shown you some of him drinking, so this is just a head shot when we first spotted him arriving.

    These Red-browed Finches are so well named, aren't they. Quite unmistakeable with that red eyebrow. There was a pair of them at the waterhole I do believe I only saw these in Queensland.

    At least I think so. Surely Regent Bowerbirds deserve that title. He was the second visitor to the water hole that morning.

    The next day Hans took me to his forest waterhole. We had to stop on the way to fill some large containers with water. After getting me comfortably positioned behind some netting and getting the hole refilled, the first visitors were a couple of Lewin's Honeyeaters (think they were waiting for...

    Black and white, but he's grey

    Of course everything I was seeing that first day was a Lifer. Not just the species, but the families.... we don't have parrots, miners and these dapper guys - butcherbirds. This is a Grey Butcherbird - rather neat, isn't he.

    All the colours

    A very pretty visitor to visitor Ken's garden, waiting to greet me on my first day in Australia. For some reason I'm unable to download pictures from my camera card to my laptop now. It wants me to 'format the card'. I seem to sort out one problem, only to be faced with another one or two LOL.

    Sorry folks... had a rather serious hiccup with my laptop the other day.

    Isn't he handsome

    I reckon he was one of the stars to visit the water hole. Mind there were a few.... but he has to be up there somewhere LOL. He sometimes came with his girlfriend, so you'll no doubt get to see a picture of a female too at some point.
