Stilt Reflections

One of the great little hides that we got to visit, the Malbup Bird Hide, in the Ludlow-Tuart Forest was situated in the middle of a dry brushy area, with a large swampy section on one side. The whole area was full of Kangaroos, bush type birds, parrots, doves, kookaburra, as well as ducks and shore birds.

These lovely waders are White-headed Stilts, or Pied Stilts depending on what reference you are looking at were feeding along side the hide.

This is an immature bird, fully grown in size, just does not have its adult plumage yet.

Fairy Wrens!

It seems like an awful lot of our time here in Australia has been spent at one kind of water or another. Beaches, reefs, rivers and billabongs. Here in the Perth area, we finally got to spend some time in the bush, and the birds all got smaller and cuter! Finches, robins, flycatchers, honeyeaters and wrens. A couple of days ago, we ran across a small group of Splendid Fairy-wrens. These birds were not in their incredible, almost neon colors of the breeding season, but are still beautiful none the less.

Scarlett Robin

One of our recent stops along the way was at a natural pond, formed along a river. There was a nice group of Scarlett Robins all around the area. Here is a nice shot of both the male, and the female.

The Male.


And the Female.

Fence post Kestrel

In our travels thru Australia, one of the birds that has remained consistent, has been the Nankeen Kestrel. We have seen them in every stop, and no matter how many times I see them, I still love to shoot them. This bird was eating what looked like a large grasshopper when we spotted it. It sat there for a few still pics and then flew off. These are the last three shots I got!


Up,up.....

And away!!

My longest Twitch

Just in case you are not familiar with Birding Lingo, a twitch is to make a special, and exclusive trip to look for a specific bird. Many times this comes from a rare bird being spotted, and someone will drive, or travel considerable distance to find said bird. Jeanne and I have traveled roughly 3000 kilometers, in search of an Emu. I know, most of you are rolling your eyes, thing, what the hell is wrong with him. But, in my defense, how can you spend just shy of a month in Australia, on what could be described as a 95%birding trip and not see one?

Yesterday, my last full day in Australia, we finally found one!  In fact we found 5 but they were much shyer that I was expecting, and took off fore the trees the minute we stopped the car. I managed to get a couple of quick shots, from nearly 300 meters away, while they were in the shadows, looking directly into the sun, so at least those are my excuses for a terrible photo, but, they are none the less Emus!

An update, on the updated update!

OK, now I am done here in Australia, unless something really crazy should hop, or fly out in front of us on the way to the airport tomorrow. When I last updated my previous update, I was at 499 bird species on the Little Big Year list, and hoped for one more to get me above 500. Jeanne plotted a course for us today, with one major target in mind. The one bird that had escaped me, and was really bugging me, especially if I should leave this awesome country with out seeing. The Emu! We were up early, and on our way, with our first stop to be at the Malbup Bird Hide, in the Ludlow-Tuart Forest. I was barley out of the car when #500 showed up. The Spotted Pardlote!  This lovely little bird was picking its was thru the underbrush, along with several other birds. The actual Bird Hide is a beautifully constructed blind, that is about 500 meters from the car park. All totaled, we were in the park about an hour, maybe a little more and I found 26 species, which added 5 to the Little Big Years List, The Splendid Fairy-wren, Western Whistler, Red-capped Parrot, and the Inland Thornbill. 

From there, we made several stops, including an amazing burger at "Burger Buddy" in Margaret River. From there we headed towards Nannup, with our last hope for finding the Emus. Just before the turn off, Jeanne and I both spotted them at the same time, 4 big fat Emu's right on the edge of the tree line!  SWEET! Ok, I really can't comment on their weight, but they were Emu's and that is all I cared about.

With the Emu's found, that puts the Little Big Year at 505!!  Lets bring on South Africa!

Here is a quick picture of that Bird #500.
