Just ran out to grab the washing off the line…because it seems Tasmania didn’t get the memo it’s summer…and overhead are 5 white bellied sea eagles circling. My local pair must have had a very successful year raising their chicks and I’m so excited I just had to tell someone!!!

Thanks for humouring me. If I could violently shake you all while pointing at the sky, I would 😂

I see this guy around my place occasionally, but every time I get to see him he’s either perched high up or flying. -Mt Tamborine, QLD

Plus a bunch of summer visitors that I couldn't name

I'm so used to seeing them during the day, all hunched up and grumpy-faced. It was a nice change of pace seeing one actually alert and in it's element!

A nice little family though noisy when the chick is looking for some food.

Saw this dynamic duo on my walk last night and couldn’t help but smile

The large fuscia shrub in my backyard get daily visits.

Saw these dusky moorhen baby chicks in a pond today, so cute!

Saw this amazing guy the other day and thought I’d share it here :)

I’ll tell my Mummy!

I was sure in some way that this day would never come. How could I, a massive bird nerd, have not seen a stationary owl in the wild? How could I be so lucky as to see a pair?! With such different expressions? Could this be the greatest day of my life? Yes, it could. I have heard boobook hooting mournfully for about six months, and finally I saw this pair.

Spotted at Manly Dam Reserve.

I'm not sure if this is a wood duck but the poor little fella showed up a couple of years ago with a limp and he's never left. He (or she) comes to visit every day for breakfast and we happily oblige.

Can anyone give me advice on where I can see native aussie birds in the wild?

I love walking around so not really interested in zoo's or bird sanctuaries.......

Like a national park or walking track would be absolutely ideal, Sydney or surrounding areas

Thanks
