I enjoyed these views of a beautifully crafted globe silvereye nest today at Badger Creek Weir Reserve.
I always enjoy the descriptions in the best field guides of the bird behaviours, nests etc. Of the Silvereye nest, Pizzey describes a:
suspended cup of grass, thistledown, moss, spider's web, usually in shrub

| This fellow emerged under parents' watchful eye | 
I was hoping to have a further 
lyrebird experience while at Badger Creek Weir but dipped!!! I could hear the cacophony of a male singing but wanted the visual.
Did enjoy photographing these Common bronzewing demonstrating their range of colour.

| No colour! | 
|  | 
| Bronze? Surely this is green? | 
|  | 
| Ahh! there's some bronze! | 
|  | 
| Look I can do both! | 
|  | 
| Enjoyed this pose but needed that King Parrot
 fluoro-green stripe!
 | 
|  | 
| That's the one! | 
|  | 
| Crimson rosella grazing | 
|  | 
| Now tell me this: Are all parrots left "handed"?
