Water birbs!

A nice stroll around Emerald Lake Park & came across these two.

Cheeky criminal!

This adult Crimson rosella is getting more brazen & adventurous. Yesterday it even hopped up on the plant stand by the back sliding door. Closest itโ€™s been to me yet.

It got the short shrift from the gardener though. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Sekrit squizza

This is a Bassian thrush. Ordinarily, it is a secretive seeker of bugs in the undergrowth &, by & large, is very hard to spot as a consequence. Imagine my surprise when I was able to (furviely) not only approach it but have it stand & pose nicely for me.

Great birb.

Hybrid lifer!

Quite thenโ€liferโ€ here. It is a juvenile Cromson rosella crossed with a White-cheeked or Eastern rosella or ๐˜—๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜บ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ค๐˜ถ๐˜ด ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜จ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ด ๐˜น ๐˜ฆ๐˜น๐˜ช๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ถ๐˜ด. The colours in the the wing scalloping is typical of ๐˜—. ๐˜ฆ๐˜น๐˜ช๐˜ฎ๐˜ช๐˜ถ๐˜ด with minor crimson edging showing. The torso is typical of juve ๐˜—. ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜จ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ด with green hues over the bright yellows & reds but the clincher is the face patches which clearly show features of both - white & blue.

This image was taken in Akoonah Park, Berwick.

Interesting birb.

First walk post release from ๐Ÿฆ ISO detention & Iโ€™m not too sure if the local Tawnies were as impressed as me. Mind you, it was blowing a gale & the wind chill would have sublimated air.

Saw these two Tawny Frogmouths hiding in plain sight in a tree directly above a stallholder's gazebo at the Noosa Farmer's Market a while back. Seemingly completely unperturbed by all the comings & going below them...

Tawny Puffer Fish!

Resident Tawny frogmouths captured late afternoon in their current roost. Female, in the centre, is aware & intently watching the camera guy & the male (lower) is doing his best lookaway impression of a puffer fish.
