This is November: The birds

November saw a number of birds who came within my camera view. Many are regular visitors.

One “visitor” is my chook. This photo is through the door from my office. She likes to come looking for me and knocks on the door if I don’t pay her any attention.

Another visitor is a King Parrot. When I am outside, he comes and sits nearby whistling to get my attention and to see if I may have some spare seeds.

I did a blog about Kurrie the Pied Currawong earlier in November. Here he is with his fluffy feathers

And calling to the parent for some food

Lewins Honeyeaters are the boss of my besties garden. They love the Blue Salvia flowers

When I was walking around Grafton, I spied a Forest Kingfisher. Soon his mate joined him. It’s amazing the variety birds that are in town.

We wondered why the birds are skittish in my besties garden every now and then. I spied a Black-shouldered Kite on the other side of the valley.

With an abundance of Paperbark flowers, the Little Friarbird has a great selection to chose from.

A Black-faced Cuckoo Shrike was looking for a snack I think.

A Tawny Frogmouth was resting from its nocturnal hunting.

The Red-browed Firetail was wondering
1. If the water was too deep
2. If the water was too cold
3. If there were too many leaves in the bird bath

The Figbird kept a wary eye on my stalking through the garden.

The Eastern Yellow Robin after his bath. Bird baths are a great source for bird photos.

A seasonal visitor is the Leaden Flycatcher. The little bird hangs about for a week or so, chirping away and enjoying the garden

  1. You get so many different types of birds where you are. Maybe I should look into planting more flowers that might attract different kinds here for next year. Great pictures!
