Nankeen Night-Heron showed up on our dam last week, which was very nice of since I got to record it in my #AussieBirdCount surveys. Doesn’t like having its photo taken, but I finally got it! #ausbirds

Yesterday I got to work early for a campus @birdlifeoz.bsky.social #AussieBirdCount in one of my favourite spots.
Turns out it was Red Wattlebird and New Holland Honeyeater central, with some kind of inter and intra-species conflict playing out for banksia access rights!

Just as I pressed submit after my count two Australian Magpies clashed viciously in the sky right above me, locking claws in the air for an instant before parting with angry cries . . . Tonight's winner was certainly the Rainbow Lorikeet!

Day 1 of @birdlifeoz.bsky.social #AussieBirdCount was pretty soggy here on Whadjuk Noongar Country (Perth, Western Australia).
Luckily I got up early to get a courtyard count in with a cup of coffee!
The rainbow lorikeets* were up to their usual mischief in the red bottlebrush.

Branch or bird? 👀
This master of disguise is none other than the freshly crowned #BirdOfTheYear.
As Tawny so expertly reminds us, there’s a whole world of birds out there, sometimes hiding in plain sight.

Today's #AussieBirdCount is brought to you by silvereyes. So many silvereyes.
Look here's one in a bush.
Silvereyes are smol and green (a bit like #TeamWeebill) but with one defining feature, can you guess what it is?
