Little birds around town and a Cockatiel in the backyard!

Had a wonderful experience with an Inland Thornbill. Enough words, here are the photos:









Almost as inquisitive were the Western Gerygone and the young Red-capped Robin:




and for the first time I have been able to manage a photo, a Cockatiel sitting atop one of the neighbours trees.

There is a video of this bird on my son Moses' blog. Click the link below to see the video.

      Luaghed at that Pete mainly because I had a similar thought. Probably a bit more broad ranging ie the Bird News - strange hairy man visited the little ones along the mulga path today, our on the spot reporter filed this report ....
