Birds

06 November 2014

In a stand of trees just out from the clothesline there is a very small nest up in the tree with a large adult Tawny Frogmouth and two chicks nesting. All along we thought there was only one chick but when Chris's friend arrived around for a cuppa  the girls went out to have a look at the nest to find not one but two baby chicks up there looking down at them.

Olive Backed Oriole - this bird has a beautiful bird call and sits in the trees outside the kitchen window.
