A muuurder of currawongs hanging around this morning. A lone noisy miner trying to chase them away, one at a time. #birdsAU #ozBirds

Walking back from the shops, a cluster of bird droppings on the footpath gave away the Tawny Frogmouth roost in a branch above

One slept while the other gave the clear hint it would prefer I moved on

It's so impressive how brightly coloured birds can visually melt into the bush

Hoping your #WrensDay finds you as happy as this Superb Fairy-wren is with this bundle of fibers

Somehow it could still see to fly. Mad skills

I didn't witness any creeping, but the other 2 out of 3 they're nailing for sure
