In the final picture you can see my best shot of the famous red rump. Who names these birds?
This blog is to share my photographs of, and enthusiasm for, the native birds living around and passing by the base of Mount Majura, Canberra, Australia. It was inspired by the swanlings at the bottom of my street. All photographs have been taken on local walks.

Yes, the naming does have a lot to answer for doesn't it? I saw a pink eared duck for the first time recently. Hmmm. I see these lovely parrots quite often here in the Central West, I saw some this week actually as I was walking into work, but they're often out and about feeding on footpaths.
ReplyDeleteCool, thanks for letting me know. I first saw these parrots in central western NSW a long time ago, so am glad they are still plentiful. They are not too many around here.
