I’d be concerned too little mate.

Normally masters of camouflage, I readily located these 3 Tawnies perched in a near leafless Golden Ash. Had I had been a tad earlier, they’d have been fully illuminated by the setting Sun. Oh well!

Hello little beauty #fnq #wildoz

It was great to find a Spectacled flying fox tonight #wildoz

I loved the gentle demeanour of this Cockatoo as it sat watching me. All the others were quite boisterous.

This is not a wild bird. It's one of the stars of the Birds of Prey show which features rescued birds. #birds #WildOz

Meet Aang the Quoll!
At 1.65kg, he's one of the heftier chuditch we translocated to Mt Gibson this year. Here, I'm releasing him back into the wild after a quick check-up yesterday. He was looking very healthy and has even gained some weight since we first caught him 😀.

Mammal Monday.
A fearsome sight (if you’re an insect) – the fat-tailed pseudantechinus is a marsupial that hunts for insects at night in rocky habitat in central Australia.
Their tails are filled with fat that acts as a backup food supply.

Thursday Birdsday
The southern whiteface (Aphelocephala leucopsis) is a small, finch-like bird commonly seen in arid regions.
They mostly eat insects and arthropods but will also eat seeds and leaves, sometimes joining large mixed-species flocks.
