Thief
The Ragtag Daily Prompt Wednesday: Thief
At my place I have Satin Bowerbirds. They build a bower where the males try to attract a female with decorations. These decorations are mainly things blue. Now-a-days the blue items they gather are mainly plastic. I think some of the pegs may be mine but I have no idea where the rest of the treasures came from.
The males like to visit other bowers and become the thief of others treasures. Here is my video of The Bowerbird Burglar. It is a few minutes long so I hope you have time.

The morning saw the rain approaching bringing a rainy day
Sometimes rainy turns into storms. A stormy night

The Satin Bowerbird
As I mentioned in last months This is August, I lamented the fact that the photo of the male Satin Bowerbird didn’t really do it justice. Luckily he came back when the sun was out and he shone in all his glory. Enjoy.
The purple eye is also a treat.
What once was a blue colour turns black at times
This is why he is called a Satin Bowerbird
The blue cascades down his back
The female has her own special look
The green may not shimmer in the light but the markings are lovely
Here is one of the bowers on my place. This is where some fancy dancing takes place with so many bits of blue scattered about for decoration.
My video in the garden of a young Bowerbird decorating a practice bower with a lot of song and dance

Many Types of Dog
The Ragtag Daily prompt of the day: Dog
There are many different types of what could be called Dog.
There are the doggies in the window
There are tired dogs
There are dogs that hang around
There are dogs that artists make when they are outdoors and inspiration strikes
There are solid rock dogs
There are soft floaty cloud dogs
There are playful dogs
There are dogs who have looks
There are dogs who like to rough and tumble

The Dancing Lady
Who is the Dancing Lady?
The Dancing Lady is a wonderful Hibiscus (Hibiscus schizopetalus) whose flowers hang from the branches which trail among the tree that supports the foliage. I have many a photo over the years on my blog but this time I have something a bit different for you.
I also have a YouTube channel where I have some videos from my wildlife camera and other bits and pieces.
Please enjoy this Dancing Lady as she dances in the garden.
Isn’t it lovely to watch?
