Happy hour In the Bird Garden with Annette

Noticed the Blackheaded Honeyeater is back - even having a bath in the birdbath. We usually get quite a few so are looking forward to their return. 

A couple of weeks ago Pam - a fellow birder - joined us for happy hour, sitting facing our 'open air aviary' in about half an hour we spotted:

Blue Wrens, Firetail, Silver Eyes, Scarlet Robin, Yellow Rumped Thornbill, Green Rosella, White faced heron, Forest Raven, Grey Fantail, 3 unidentified fly-overs and a bit later a long lovely concert by a happy Eastern Spinebill. One of the most enjoyable 'happy hours' ever! Enclosed 2 photos I took that time and 2 closer up from before.

Happy Easter from just me, as Nick is still on Royden Island eradicating noxious weeds.

Cheers!
Annette
