April and May in Corroboree Park (Ainslie) were enlivened by very
vigorous (and almost daily) activity at the bower of a Satin
Bowerbird. Then suddenly the bower was torn apart and, by my
reckoning, no SBB were there from June through July and August.
Today there were familar sounds again, and an adult blue male and a
green bird (I assume a female) were much in evidence at the same
site. Though I could'nt approach too closely I glimpsed what looks
like a new bower under construction in exactly the same location as
the old one.
In this snap he appears to have got hold of the blue hook from a
clothes hanger or similar?
