It's nesting season for Tawny Frogmouths and this one has a prime location, well hidden and very secure.

A very handsome gang-gang cockatoo I spied the other day.

We an Eastern Rosella visit our street, happily sitting in a tree right outside our place. Such colourful birds.
Saw this industrious galah excavating a hollow. Lots of beaky action!

A new bird project takes flight. Supported by The Australian Museum and presented by Esem Projects on STORYBOX. 🦜🦜
I was going to retrieve my garbage bin, but noticed it was in use. Then, when I went to take a photo for Mastodon, I realised there was another visitor, much closer 😄

The White-headed Pigeon is a shy native bird that is probably heard rather than seen around #Brisbane (listen for a loud "wOOk" followed by a much softer "wOOk"). This individual watched me silently and cautiously while perched under a Macaranga tree next to #PerrinCreek. It was long gone when I returned minutes later with a proper camera. #BirdsOfAustralia

A Tawny Frogmouth nesting in late January is unusual? Nevertheless, here we are.

For interest's sake, the bird painted on that shield is actually a Tasmanian forest raven (Corvus tasmanicus).
A very good bird.

More Tawny Frogmouths I spotted on my morning walk along the Darebin Creek. It's always a thrill finding them as they're *so* well camouflaged.

And this young noisy friarbird, just out of the bird bath and fluffed up - looking every bit the Disney villain
