Bowerbirds and others in Ainslie

[<>]

<><>
<><>Until this summer our GBS site in Ainslie has been visited very rarely 

by bowerbirds, indeed I'd only had a handful of sightings on the east 

side of Canberra. Since December one or two green birds have been 

appearing regularly, much to our delight. Last weekend we returned from 

a couple of weeks away to find we have a bower in the garden, right next 

to the bowerbird's favourite fig tree. Not the best built bower I've 

ever seen, but a bower nonetheless.


This morning the same fig tree had a male koel feeding in it, and later 

an immature oriole.


regards

Steve
