Over the past few years, I've watched our local group of Glossy Black Cockatoos grow from 3 to 6. It's a lovely experience being in the presence of these large, gentle parrots https://sydneybirder.com/2026/03/20/local-group-of-glossy-black-cockatoos-now-six-strong/ #WildAustralia #Birds #BirdWatching #Parrots

I'm not such an ugly duckling... https://sydneybirder.com/2026/02/04/black-swan-baby-is-no-longer-an-ugly-duckling/ #birds #BirdWatching #WildAustralia

Don't mess with our cockatoos! Even if you're a fierce predator. https://sydneybirder.com/2026/01/29/cockatoo-chases-off-a-falcon/ #BirdWatching #birds #WildAustralia

A pair of Grey Butcherbirds have built their nest in a tree fern below our house. The problem with tree ferns is that they sprout new fronds from the centre of the trunk, exactly where the nest is now. I hope the butcherbirds manage to hatch the eggs and raise their young before the next sprouting happens. https://sydneybirder.com/2025/09/19/butcherbird-nest-in-tree-fern-hope-it-survives/ #birds #WildAustralia #BirdWatching

This Diamond Python was basking in the sun near a bush path. It's recently had a meal, hence the bulge in its body. https://sydneybirder.com/2025/01/22/python-has-just-swallowed-a-meal/ #wildAustralia #WildOz #snake
