Oh no! Just found this precious little angel lying on the pathway in front of our lemon + bottlebrush bushes 😭

Ah... forgot I had a copy on my phone!
Here we go: Silvereye beside its nest in our strawberry tree. Had to climb a ladder to reach. 😍
Some of the unexpected #silvereyes sightings this afternoon in the chilly winter afternoon sun.
Turns out there was a whole flock in that tree!
Is it just me, or do these two sushi balls from KUMO look like a fluffy pair of #silvereyes preening? 😹
Some more Autumn Birdy Berry Tree goodness
Some more clingy cuteness!
This pair have been hanging around in the "Autumn Birdy Berry Tree" in the late afternoon sun all week.
For your Friday night entertainment, here are some cute snaps of a very cuddly pair of silvereyes a few days ago 😍
Prior to this, I'd never seen them acting like really clingy cats!
Yusss! Just got some even better shots of a fluffy pair of cuddling #silvereyes in the autumn birdy berry tree - this time with the birdy lens and nicer lighting. Also caught them doing some rather derpy expressions while doing some "clingy-cat" moves 😂
Happy Easter! The silvereyes are busy enjoying their "strawberry tree" berries these days..
Didn't have my bird lens with me when they showed up the other day, hence the heavily-cropped lower quality shots.
3) A few more of just the trio of juveniles looking all fluffy huddled together, and dozing off between meals in the warm sunshine.
2) The trio clamouring for food from their parent
Juvenile bird pictures thread incoming!
1) The trio + mum/dad: After feeding.

Argh! Just when I thought this year's silvereye season had ended (with most of the flowers had fish-boned + trimmed off now), a pair of silvereyes turned up this morning, together, on a single branch, and spent time preening + playing in the rain!
The problem:
I'd just put the net curtains back up last night! Moving 'em to get a clear view would scare the birds off 🤦♂️
Doh!
Good morning! It's another nice sunny weekend day today 😊

It's a rainy Sunday here - perfect for going over my backlog of silvereye shots from the past few weeks, while watching a few hardy + sodden ones dodging the rain outside 😂
