CENTRAL COAST BIRDS - RUMBALARA OUTTING - 26 MARCH 2015

 

A day outing for the birds at Rumbara Reserve. 

 

A natural bush setting. Back to basics for the birds.

 

The weather was fine the birds were enjoying themselves - playing in the leaves, in small trees.



 

 

 

They had visitors. An inquisitive bush turkey who had his eye on Ava. She was yellow and he wasn't sure what it was. Ava ignored him.

Ahh, the bush turkey attacked and took a nip (a friendly nip but a monster of a beak to a lorikeet). Ava wasn't impressed. Photo of the attack above.

Miss Xena was posing and felt safe. Ah, the strange birds cannot see my camouflage in the green leaves.

 

LEAVE MY BIRDS ALONE!

 Ava back to eating.

 

Friendly kookaburras. Watching! Observing! Waiting! Swoop! And Master Archiebald got pecked and a small cut from a kookaburra.

 



Master Archiebald squawked and whined but was soon back to playing.

A fun day but stressful for Miss (bird protector) Kara.

CENTRAL COAST BIRDS - AVA,ARCHIE, XENA - IN THE LITTLE TREE - 24 MARCH 2015

A photo shoot time for the birds - Miss Ava, Mr Archiebald and Miss Xena.

They had fun in the little bottle brush tree - playing, eating nectar, acrobatics and posing.

CENTRAL COAST BIRDS - 'ARCHIE ON THE MOUNTAIN' - 3 march 2015

My daughter and I drove to the top of Kincumba Mountain Reserve to take Archie her new 'dusky lorikeet' on it's first day outing.

We sat on the rocks and watched the bird grow in confidence to explore his new world.

A relaxing afternoon.
