I just found a pretty cool looking moth on the veranda.

While at a lunch meeting outside, we were visited by a curious Buff-banded Rail.

New day, new frog photo.

Found more Eastern Dwarf Tree Frogs this morning. This one though, had found itself a little leaf nest to sit in while warming in the morning sun.

New bird on the lake at work this morning (new to the lake, not to me).

A Comb-crested Jacana, walking on the water lilies.

This Lewin's Honeyeater is undecided on which is its best side.

On my walk this morning I heard quite a few birds, but saw few. However, while in the park down the road, I a tiny Peaceful Dove stopped by, and a pair of Magpie-Larks (aka Peewees).

Also, daytime moon.

Some of my regular birds at home this morning.

One of the pair of Pied Currawongs that get sultanas from the back veranda.

The female King Parrot, stopping by to see if I've put seed out (I had).

And a Lewin's Honeyeater, in the vines on the Cocos Palm about to check out the fruit (out of frame above it).

I went back this afternoon via the spot the tiny frogs were this morning and there were two out in the open.

So here's some more Tiny Frog Thursday for you.

It's Tiny Frog Thursday!

(ok I made that up, but it is Thursday and I did find a tiny frog).

Another (maybe the same one) Eastern Dwarf Tree Frog. Spotted this morning sunning itself on a broad blade of grass.

The third photo is an iPhone shot, and includes a tiny grasshopper for scale.

A female Golden Whistler checking me out, as I checked her out, on the driveway at lunchtime today.
