  1. More #birds from today's wanderings.

    One of a pair of juvenile #AustralianMagpie that were playing on the lawn this morning.

    A #GreyFantail stopping momentarily on a branch in the sun.

    A #RufousFantail who managed to sit on this branch for almost 30 secs.

    And a female #AustralianKingParrot blending in, in a Bunya Pine.

  3. Wandered down the driveway a couple of times today, camera in hand, and came across a Grey Fantail, in a rare moment of stillness, and a Little Wattlebird that was busy visiting the flowers for nectar (while getting a face full of pollen in the process).

  4. We stopped off at the Samford Eco Corridor while out today for a walk and to look at birds (ostensibly to kill some time before going for lunch).

    This is the first batch of birds:

    A Grey Fantail.
    A Superb Fairywren (eclipse - i.e. not yet in breeding plumage)
    And a couple of Brown Honeyeaters. They make up for their relative plainness by having a lovely song.

  5. A small Grey Fantail (Rhipidura albiscapa) artistically posed on a branch next to my driveway a few days ago.

  6. If I was an actual good photographer like Cat Sparks, or @jonnosan , it would be obvious what #bird species these are. Bwahaha it's OK, I'll tell you. Female #SuperbLyrebird #YellowRobin #GreyFantail and #WhiteBrowedScrubWren #BlueMountains :)

  7. This morning's bird, is the Grey Fantail. More common than its Rufous cousin that prefers more forested areas, the Grey Fantail can be found even in urban areas, although they prefer fields and forests.

  8. Grey Fantail as seen from my veranda on the weekend. These delightful little birds catch insects on the wing and very active.
    They also, as their name suggests, fan their tales for various reasons, sometimes to display a warning, sometimes in courting, and I suspect sometimes because they just want to look fabulous.
