Keeping track of some little things

A few images from Tyto tracks, starting with young Willie Wagtail (Rhipidura leucophrys) yesterday calling for the cleanup squad.

Rock Dove (Columba livia) looks a little lost near entrance today. Leg band dated 2010 carries ID ending in 579013.

Dragonfly (Orthetrum villosovittatum) perches over temporary pool beside entry track.



Small Carpet Snake (Morelia spilota) on mown track gives an ant a lift, and the lens a threatening stare.
