Dear Birders,
I made a very well-timed foray outside yesterday - it was drizzling but had to
get out of the house as was working from home, so resolved to visit a neighbour
- got halfway down the driveway, noticed lots of twittering and movement so
raced back for the bins.
So glad I did, was treated to a dozen or so Silver-eyes, half a dozen or so
Yellow-faced HEs feeding in the Banksias, a Lewin's Honeyeater, Grey Fantail,
Spinebill and the cream of the crop - a male Rose Robin (a lifer for me). These
all in my front garden. (The Yellow-faced HEs were also lifers, though I'd seen
them flying over in flocks it was the first time I'd identified them
positively). The birds didn't stay long - just makes you wonder what we miss
every day!!
So don't forget to look out the window or pop outside now and then - just in
case!
cheers,
Arwen
