Then again you get days when the sun shines children are laughing, birds sing their little hearts out and they are positively fighting to get their tickets for a bit of bling on their cute little legs. And we have had a few of them in the past few weeks. Anyway here's a select few photo's
Sometimes you sits and thinks and sometimes you just sits should be on every net sold to bird banders. Sometimes you have time to ponder on the universe as you stare at empty nets and a landscape totally devoid of avian lie forms. It's a kind of post apocalyptic zombie robin kind of feeling that you know they are there but damned if they are coming out to play while you are sitting there munching on an old muesli bar and drinking flat diet fizzless cola. Then again you get days when the sun shines children are laughing, birds sing their little hearts out and they are positively fighting to get their tickets for a bit of bling on their cute little legs. And we have had a few of them in the past few weeks. Anyway here's a select few photo's There's always one that finds facing the wrong way for morning dedications. Nearing the end of extracting about 24 birds mostly silvereyes but a nice variety was caught. It must be the time of year as there was several panic calls of "hundreds of Birds in the net" only for me to find out there was just a few tens. Lots of migratory honeyeaters like yellow-faced and white-naped plus the silvereyes make up the majority of the birds. Much fun was had by all.

Hi Pete, what were you using to take the pictures, was it your phone? Hope that your trip to the Sumatran jungle went well. Cheers, Ian
