Hello all,
This afternoon I've put up some more photos onto my website
(www.wildlifing.com). The passerines section of the site is still very
messy- It is part of an ongoing overhaul that I am putting it through.
Its a slow process.
The photos are of a pair of Yellow-tipped Pardalotes (Striated
Pardalotes) that are nesting in an erosion bank behind my house at
Ranelagh, Tasmania (south of Hobart). There are actually two nests about
10 metres apart in the same bank. To fill out the webpage a bit I've
included a couple of Superb Fairywren photos and a couple of European
Goldfinch photos. The goldfinches are nesting in a rosebush near my back
gate.
Masked Owl work is slowly marching along. I've been working in the
Geeveston area over the last couple of weeks. Found and listened to a
particularly vocal male masked owl down in the Geeveston area about a
week ago. Scrubtits, Tas Thornbills, Wedge-tailed Eagle and Swift
Parrots are some of the other things I've seen down that way recently.
The Swift Parrots have been feeding in flowering Eucalyptus ovata rather
than the usual Euc. globulus. In the mammal line I've seen the smallest
Eastern Quoll that I've seen, just about rat-sized, very cute.
Cheers
Mick Todd
