The beautiful colours of the male King Parrot. I love their eyes #nature #parrot #birds #naturePhotography #WildBirds #aussieBirds #AustralianBirds

The Spotted Pardalote is often called the "Diamond Bird" because of its beautiful spotted plumage. #birds #aussieBirds #nature #naturePhotography #nikon #smallBirds

Thrilled to see this pair of #Kookaburras who were busy inspecting a potential nesting site. #australia #australianBirds #birds #nature #naturePhotography #nikon #birds #kingfishers #wildBirds

Female/juvenile male Satin #Bowerbird. Named for the males' courtship displays featuring intricately constructed bowers decorated with blue trinkets. I love their bright blue eyes. #aussieBirds #bird #australia #nature #wildBirds #naturePhotography #nikon

Tawny #Frogmouths are #Australian nocturnal #birds that are often mistaken for owls. Although common, they are very well camouflaged, and this is the first time I've seen one in the wild. These two are a breeding pair. #aussieBirds #australianBirds #tawnyFrogmouth #nikon #nature #naturePhotography

These little cuties caught me by surprise yesterday. Happy first day of spring :) (Stitched together from 90 hand held photos. Contains audio - song created with Suno.com) #birds #aussieBirds #nature #naturePhotography #nikon #birdBath

Drama in the skies. Crimson Rosellas duel as a third watches on. #birds #aussieBirds #rosella #nikon #nature #wildBirds #naturePhotography

#kookaburras are the largest #kingfishers in the world, growing up to 47cm long and weighing around 300g. A true #Aussie icon, they are infamous for their laughing cackle, mocking you from afar. #Australia #birds #aussieBirds #nature #naturePhotography #nikon #wildBirds

Perhaps my favourite little visitor at the moment. The eastern Spinebill. They hover like hummingbirds, sipping at nectar #aussieBirds #birds #australia #australianBirds #wildBirds #birds #nature #naturePhotography #birbs

Crimson Rosellas are very territorial and will chase away others that venture too close to their territory. #birds #aussieBirds #wildBirds #Nikon #nature #naturePhotogpraphy #parrot #rosella

Another cute little silver eye. Really loving the small songbirds atm. #birds #aussieBirds #Australia #australianBirds #welcomeNeighbour #nikon

The blue eyes of the yellow faced honeyeater. Cute little visitor to my yard today. #welcomeNeighbour #birds #aussieBirds #nikon #naturePhotography #wildBirds #australia

This little yellow faced honeyeater likes singing 30 minutes before dawn because apparently 6am isnt early enough 😅 #welcomeNeighbour #birds #aussieBirds #nature #naturePhotography #nikon #australia

I *love* Kookaburras. Great photos :)

These pocket sized performers are only 11-13cm long and weigh about 10 grams. They're accomplished travellers, flying from #Tasmania to the mainland (about 250km!) A massive distance for such a tiny #birb. This photo was taken in the tree adjacent my yard, welcome neighbour! :) #birds #aussieBirds

Sulphur Crested Cockatoo. These feathery troublemakers love to hang out in big, noisy groups and can live for over 70 years. #birds #aussieBirds #australianBirds #nature #naturePhotography #wildBirds #nikon

Meeting my new neighbours. An eastern spinebill visited today. These little energetic birds can hover in mid-air while sipping nectar from flowers, just like a hummingbird. #nature #birds #aussieBirds #naturePhotography #wildBirds #australia #spinebill #nikon

Im moving house tomorrow, will really miss my little feathered friends and worry about Hoppy because it has been a harsh winter so far. Got some boxes of seed that I'll give to neighbours in the hope they might continue to feed them. #wildBirds #birds #australianBirds #parrots #nature

This bird is a Sakhalin Leaf Warbler. It sang right in front of me, so I can say that with confidence. But without the song, it’s really hard to tell! 😓 🪶 べ、別に　#ケツ曜日　を意識したわけじゃないんだからねッ‼️ 🤣 #nature #photography #animals #wildlife #SakhalinLeafWarbler #エゾムシクイ #birds #野鳥

It took me 5 weeks to capture any usable image of a Little Bittern. They bolt out the reeds, unannounced and it's pure luck to be looking in the right direction. This is the best I have managed so far and it's terrible!! #birds #WaderWednesday

In winter, Crimson Rosellas gather in small, lively flocks to forage and roost together. This photo shows Hoppy with two juveniles (distinguished by their green feathers) who are most likely their offspring. #birds #wildBirds #nature #naturePhotography #nikon #australia #australianBirds #parrots

Hoppy foraging in the frost. Crimson rosellas often forage on the ground in winter, searching for fallen seeds and plant material when food in the canopy is less abundant. #birds #aussieBirds #australianBirds #parrot #nature #naturePhotography #wildBirds

#Currawong are smart, they are known to use tools, such as sticks, to extract insects hidden beneath tree bark and other hiding places. #aussieBirds #birds #nikon #australia #australianBirds #nature #wildBirds #naturePhotography

#CrimsonRosellas don’t just rely on their flashy feathers, they actually sniff each other out! Each bird has a signature scent (akin to an old jumper doused in cheap perfume) that helps them spot friends and family. “Eau de parrot” anyone? #aussieBirds #birds #nature #wildBirds #Australia #Nikon

The #Weebill plays an important role in the #Australian ecosystem by helping control populations of sap-sucking insects like scale insects and psyllids. #birds #aussieBirds #australianBirds #nature #naturePhotogrpahy #nikon

Latest addition to our family. Introducing Maple the Adorable :D #dog #doggo #animals #animalPhotography #groodle #puppy

The #Weebill is #Australia's smallest #bird. They construct dome shaped nests suspended from branches which are woven using grasses, plant fibres, cobwebs, and animal hair. They love visiting my plum tree in small, noisy flocks. #naturePhotography #wildBirds #nature #aussieBirds #australianBirds

Their bright, green and blue feathers are coloured by light refraction through microscopic structures in their feathers, a phenomenon known as structural colouration. #birds #aussieBirds #australianBirds #nature #wildBirds #naturePhotography #nikon

Family of Superb #Fairywrens 2 non-breeding males (can tell by the soft blue tint on the tails) and a female. #aussieBirds #birds #nature #naturePhotography #australia

Today I choose tranquility.

Unlike the white #ibis, often nicknamed "bin chickens" in Australia, straw-necked ibises are generally more reserved and tend to avoid humans. They migrate in response to changing water availability and food sources. #birds #aussieBirds #australianBirds #nature #naturePhotography #Australia

Eastern #rosella are closely related to the crimson rosella that often feature on my page. Eastern and crimson rosellas can interbreed, creating hybrid rosellas with unique colouration. The guy in this pic is your standard/classic eastern Rosella. #birds #aussieBirds #nature #naturePhotography

#Galahs are monogamous and usually mate for life. They nest in tree hollows, and both parents are actively involved in incubating and feeding chicks. #birds #australianBirds #birbs #nature #naturePhotography #nikon

Each autumn, tens of thousands of Yellow-faced #Honeyeaters migrate north from south eastern Australia, forming huge flocks often described as “rivers” of birds flowing past for hours. #birds #aussieBirds #australianBirds #nature #naturePhotography #birds

That feeling of being watched... #birds #nature #naturePhotography #Australian #australianBirds #aussieBirds

Grey #fantail taking flight. Their fan shaped tail helps them make sharp, acrobatic turns mid-flight, as they chase down insects. #birds #aussiBirds #AustralianBirds #nature #naturePhotography #Australia

Australian #magpie keeping watch. They can remember human faces for years. #australia #australianBirds #aussieBirds #birds #nature #naturePhotography #wildBirds

Eastern #quoll running/bounding. A mob of Noisy Mynas was chasing it away (unfortunately, I didn't manage to capture the birds in the photos). #marsupial #australia #nature #naturePhotography #animals #australinaAnimals
