Lol they are now hiding in amongst the native grasses and weeds.

Looks like it’s their first time out of the nest :swoon: :laugh:

I meant to share this pic from a couple days ago. Was walking back to work after lunch, met this fellow and promptly went around to the other side of the barrier :)

No pictures, but I saw a cheeky crow on my way home from work yesterday morning. It was picking at something just off the roadway. As I got close it took 2 hops backwards and stood there and watched me drive by. Then it hopped right back to it's breakfast.

Are they mynah?
Could be, I’m not good with baby identifying lol. We have the noisy miner birds, Indian mynah birds and starlings too and they all kinda look the same to me as babies so I can’t tell.

And a black one that hangs out with Cookie called Dough Boy (pretty sure they are involved with each other to some degree)

What's the second last bird? I like him!
kookaburra I think? I recognize him and the cockatoos. The other colourful Parrots look familiar but I can't name them off the top of my head

I can never get nice clear pics of the rosellas here, we have one that has been visiting everyday for a while now all alone which is unusual to see, it was trying to get in Birdies aviary the other day through a hole in the wire (thank you Birdie for the hole!). We do not get king parrots where I am but from what I see of my cousins footage (they're on the other side of the state) and many others footage on IG they often seem rather friendly and curious.
The last Kookaburra I saw in my yard was one who visited and stole my favorite fish :(

I saw another raccoon, unfortunately this the best shot I could get :lol: 20221030_145602.jpg

And I got to see a Pileated woodpecker! It was cool to see. It the day we put down Bitsy, I'd like to think Bits sent him here to cheer me up. I don't have great pictures but here's the best one.

I found this really interesting about woodpeckers.
