I also found two types of finches (Red-browed and Double-barred), and a bit further down the road, a Whistling Kite did a few slow circles above me.

Look at this lil' bird. Barely the size of a McNugget. Maybe a popcorn chicken.

I jest, lil' feathered friend. Fly free, and a long and happy life to you.

Went for a #bird walk this morning as the weather was nice for the first time on this trip (not hot, nicely overcast).

I wandered down to Old Toongabbie Creek and did the part of the creekside walk.

We have a corvid of some sort, a #Galah & a #RedBrowedFinch & a #BellMiner

And here's a snap. Yeah, that fuzzy blob. It took off as I clicked, flying straight toward me. No. No it's not a good photo 😂

The Red-browed Finches out the front of our place are still industriously nest building. Here is one of them taking a very short break after bringing more grass back to the nest.

Red-browed Finch nesting.

They're so quick, and the nest is so well hidden amongst the branches that getting a decent shot is somewhat difficult.

Today, we have a juvenile Kookaburra with a massive grub the nearby parent brought it for breakfast.

And some Red-browed Finches industriously building a nest in the tree out the front of my place.
