Thanks to our neighbour’s wonderful native garden, we have many little birds nesting nearby.
The Superb Fairywrens are up at the crack of dawn collecting nesting materials and hunting insects. They have been incredibly bold bounding around our dog yard.
Here she is.

Here he is.

And a female Golden Whistler also visited today.

Down the road at our park, currawong chicks have already hatched, while the magpies are currently on their nest too. It is all happening.
It is a very different year to last year. It is much drier and hotter. The temperature is forecast to be 35o Celcius next week and we are only three weeks into Spring. Perhaps the rats will leave home then, although it is probably better for the wren chicks if they do not.

Kind Regards.

The Superb Fairywrens are as cute as their name. Lovely photos, Tracy.

Thank you, Lois. The wrens are like little roosters in the morning. Cute and noisy. 🙂

Looks like you’re in for a hot summer Tracey. I let Google do the calculation to fahrenheit. We started out the same way. Barely any spring. Loved your bird images. The small birds are so cute but hard to photograph.

Yeah, not looking forward to Summer, Anne.
The little birds are very busy and hard to photograph but because it is spring, they are more focussed on each other than us. 🙂

Lovely photos. As you may have noticed the Fairy-wrens are one of my favourite little birds and I love their sound. Reminds me of a mouse squeaking.
I’ve heard a few chicks chirping each morning but can’t see any nests or physical evidence of hatchlings. Bird sounds around my apartment seem to be earlier this Spring. And yes, it does seem warmer this year.

Vicki, WP must be misbehaving on you, but when you mentioned apartment I knew who was making the comment. Perhaps the chicks will visit you soon. Really warming up now!
