Keep coming across one or two 'pals' at Pallarenda while checking on progress of breeding Tawny Frogmouths lately in the conservation park. First up, young Australian Raven, one of four immatures noising and nosing about the place today.
Immature Black-backed Magpie, one of three mostly sticking close to one or other of parents.
Alone, but happy to accept relatively close company of tailing photographers, Pacific Baza.
Not quite so confiding, Channel-billed Cuckoo making welcome descent tree tops and allowing briefest of clear views.
Not totally clear but impressive enough, Red-tailed Black Cockatoo landing on Casuarina near beach today.
Quieter today than full screechy overhead yesterday, Sulphur-crested Cockatoo.
Nothing to say from these two Tawny Frogmouths of course. Older image, taken before the two quit nest about 10 days ago to go walkabout in nest tree. Question is, why male back on nest in last three days. Could there be a new egg? Wait and see.
Gidday all,
