Showing off some of the noisy culprits before returning to the swamp. One regurgitated pellet from a Pied Currawong can contain over 60 weed seeds!
Oh great. 60 weed seeds. So they must be spreading the weeds across Australia.
BUT look at the beautiful yellow circle around the eyes.
Oh sitting on Cookies, perch. I miss Cookie.
Not great Ces! Heehee, they are spreading weeds across my backyard, although that's where they are coming from in the first place :) Their yellow eyes can be piercing! I miss Cookie too.
Anon, are most of these birds in your backyard? I cannot believe the many varieties of very interesting birds, including YOU! Hahahaha!
They are ALL in my backyard Ces! Even that sound file in the post below is recorded from my back door. Only the Pied Currawongs and Lorikeets were there at the time too!
i would love your backyard to be my backyard, anon. do you head straight for the window/door when you get up each morning?
ps i will take pictures for you. or, rather, i will try to snap these sweet little birds
:)
It's outside the bedroom window that wakes me up KJ! Do head for the door when I get up in the morning because have an outside toilet Hhehhehheee. I would love to see photos of the sweet birds in front of you KJ :) WHAT are you doing looking at virtual birds on your vacation?
Is Currawong an aboriginal word?
Ces, The word "currawong", was recorded from languages between Newcastle and Brisbane, e. g. cur-ow-ung in Awaba (Newcastle area) and kirriwong in Birbai (Port Macquarie area). There were between 250 to 300 aboriginal languages with about 20 still spoken today.
I love thier song - I always feel like Im somewhere exotic when I hear them - LOL - as in instead of in the suburbs!
My goodness good timing with the pellet shot - now you have legal proof of thier vandalism ;)
I love their song too Lavender, we are lucky to be able to fantasise when in the suburbs :) YES proof of vandalism! Hhahahhhaaaa, also take note of the lack of paint on the topside of our clothes line and all the boken cords! I use the dryer to dry the washing, the birds have taken over the Hills Hoist!
Your hills have a hoist? Where do you have to hoist them to? Before you hoist your hills somewhere, you need to clean the swimming pool. I wouldn't be impressed, either.
Many of our hills have several hoists on them Madame XOX. You aren't invited to go swimming anyway!
Hoisting hills...hahahahhaaha!! That would drive me mad. Oh, it is Anony that has to hoist. Oooops.
May I go swimming?
Only if you drown, Perriette.
*gurgle*
*phew!*
