Pic of the day: a while back I posted a female spotted pardalote (www.flickr.com/photos/rothe...). Here's the male of the species! The feather pattern on his back is amazing when you look closely, they're gorgeous little birbs.

Another of my notoriously bad #photofail shite-phone-pics, yet I'm still glad I got a shot of my elusive Eastern Spinebill in my garden yesterday. Their flight is super-quick!

Two pics from the backyard bird bath: a red-browed finch and a spotted dove.

A red-browed finch - a small bird with a bright red stripe over its eye, and a red flash in its tail but otherwise dull grey in the body and olive on its back. A grey-brown dove with a distinctive black-with-white-spots patch on the back of its neck.

Birds and cities don’t always mix well. But small changes in our behaviour can make a difference
Spring is a great time of year for noticing neighbourhood birds. Here are some simple ideas for helping the birds in Australian back yards, cities and towns

First bird is a New Holland honeyeater. Second bird is a silvereye...but it's got a yellow eye ring instead of white.

#birds #birbs #birdsinbackyards
A small bird, black on the back with yellow flashes on the wing, and mostly white underneath, standing on the edge of a birdbath. A small bird with a small, black, pointed beak, mostly grey with yellow-to-olive feathers around its eye, a little white stripe under its head.

I'm glad to be back home today after an unexpectedly extended visit to family for a couple of weeks. Happy to be back to my trees and feathered friends. 'Here, then, at home by no more storms distrest,..' - from 'Gaudy Night' by Dorothy L. Sayers.

An adult male AustralianKing Parrot, with orange head and breast, deep emerald green wings, with bright, light green wing- flashes, sits on a large stick placed on an outdoor table in my garden on the NSW South Coast. He's about to eat a scatter of birdseed placed on the table. A regular avian visitor to my home.

Pic of the day today is a whole series (more pics in next post). Ahead of a warm day, we had a little flock of honeyeaters bathing, squabbling, gossiping and splashing around in our birdbath.

#birds #birbs #birdsinbackyards #shoutybirds #photography
Four very wet and disarranged honeyeaters perched on the edge of a birdbath. Nine very wet and disarranged honeyeaters perched on the edge of a birdbath. Most have their beaks open to shout at the bird sitting next to them. Eight very wet and disarranged honeyeaters perched on the edge of a birdbath; two birds are splashing in the water, but moving so fast they're blurred. Four or five honeyeaters either perched on the edge of a birdbath or splashing in the water.

Today is very hot - 40C (104F), hot winds out of the northwest so we have our bird baths topped up. The finches is from this morning; magpie pic is just now. He's in the gum tree over the fence, beak open to help him cool off a bit.

Two finches - small birds, mostly grey with olive-green backs, and bright red beaks and eyebrows - sitting on the edge of a bird bath. The sunlight is strong, but dappled from shady trees. A black and white Australian magpie perched on a thin gum tree branch. He has his mouth open slightly, which helps him deal with the heat.

I can’t decide on the identity of this lovely, tiny (less than 20cm) shorebird at our dam in Central Victoria. There were two of them. Black- fronted Dotterel? But no black front? #birds #birdsinbackyards

When it's safe to do so, you can help @BirdlifeOz assessing the impact #BushFireCrisis is having on our birds by entering #birdata and/or #BirdsInBackyards surveys. So stay safe, grab your binoculars and go count birds 🙂
