Hello,
My name is Rachel, I have just joined the list today. I just have a
question, about 5 months ago I bought a property up at Tanjil Bren (Mt.
Baw Baw), the first morning I stayed up there I walked outside and
waiting on my front steps for breakfast was a beautiful Satin Bower
bird, I was just amazed and I gathered that the previous owners must of
fed the bird as I could just about hand feed it and it was coming
within a foot of where I was sitting. So the past 5 months this has
become a regular thing and now I even have the female bower birds
coming in also. Ok, my problem is that I really need to clear some of
the land, not the trees but the old dead blackberries and just what is
on the ground but now I am freaking out thinking I might destroy the
bower birds nest so I have put the cleaning up off for the past few
months but now it's getting fire and snake season I really want to get
things cleaned up around my house. Can anyone here tell me how to find
a bower birds nest? or any other tips for clearing the land and not
disrupting the bower birds environment? The birds are my number 1
priority but I am not even sure that their nest is in my yard as I have
state forest on 3 sides of my house. Also when is breeding season for
the bower bird?
Kind Regards,
Rachel O'Neill.
