Is Winter nearly over already?

[Denise Kay <>]

mine have been worrying a piece of tie wire hanging from the gutter in the past week . I have removed it , the last thing we need is another Magpie hanging from wire or string or fishing line at 10 or 20 metres up. We have at least 3 a year. Fire brigade are our only hope & they are good at it.

Local Magpie carrying nesting material, but that is natural for this time of year I would think given that the chicks usually leave the nest around the long weekend in October. So maybe not so unusual for other species.

Today at Jerra Wetlands White-plumed Honeyeaters were copulating. Last weekend at Mount Majura Nature Reserve Buff-rumped Thornbills were carrying nesting material.
