Australian Boobook (Ninox boobook) known as Billy, Toohey Forest. I love the fine feathery ‘hair‘ on its feet.

I was distracted from my pondering that I hadn’t seen possum around here in a while by getting confused about someone taking photos in the dark.

What it turned out they were photographing:

Our Wollemi Pine (one of the world’s oldest and rarest trees, with under 100 left in the wild) is attracting a lot of attention in the garden. It’s the first time I’ve seen the Silvereyes feeding in there in great numbers, & the female cones are being decimated by #birds. #WildOz #nature #birding
Another taken through the kitchen window - our #Tasmanian Black Currawongs appear to be sorting out who has first rights to the #bird bath (with the winner giving the loser an impressive death stare).

A bit of a dodgy capture through the loungeroom window, on a wet and misty day. A Yellow-throated Honeyeater, endemic to #Tasmania contemplating a spider web in the branches of a eucalyptus, whose trunk has similar hues to the bird. #WildOz #Birds #Nature #Wildlife
Through a bedroom window for this one, a New Holland Honeyeater in the much maligned Red Hot Pokers. Yes, an environmental weed in #Tasmania . This year I’ve planted additional natives for the #honeyeaters and, once established & flowering, the Poker will go. #WildOz #Nature #Birding #Wildlife

Here's a view of the flying foxes along the side of Stoney Creek. The colony has expanded to near its limits now without crossing the creek or roads, must be many thousands in there now.

The little red flying fox colony at Stoney Creek, Toronto NSW was very noisy this morning. It seemed like everyone was awake, some flying about, all chattering or screeching. Warm sunny morning?
