Cootamundra wattles in bloom

Grey Butcherbird

Grey Butcherbird (Cracticus torquatus), found in forested areas and parkland all over southern Australia and parts of the northern coasts. This one has come looking for dog bones to pic at the meat.

New resident of the garden...

This is one of two Ring-tailed Possums that appear to be living somewhere in the garden or very nearby:

White-Tailed Black Cockatoo

Unfortunately there's a branch in the way, but they get so easily disturbed that I took the photo anyway rather than scare the bird away. It was looking for seed in the nearby banksias.

The garden in spring...

All it takes is a few days of sunshine to bring so many things into bloom...

My new feathered friend...

A night visitor

This is a Southern Brown Tree-frog that was clinging to the glass doors at about 10pm a couple of nights ago. The flash has made its skin colour look brighter than it actually is.
