Day 7: Red Wattlebird

A Spotted Dove has been hanging out on our balcony for 1-2 weeks. It will visit a few times a day and just sit there, chilling out. I noticed earlier in the week that it left a couple of bright blue poos. Anyone know what the cause could be? Is it sick? I've been leaving out some wild bird food mix that says it's suitable for doves (I did this after the blue poo - thought that it maybe was sick and didn't have energy to find food). It seems to enjoy it. Anyway, I'll let nature do its thing, but would love to know if it's sick and if so, if there's anything I should do/not do to make its life easier?

Duckies actually have so many nice details to photograph and one thing I like about them is that they likely come to you if they see you crouching down (some may say this is bad as it is a sign of getting fed by and used to humans). Anyways they could be beautiful.

A sighting from earlier in the week. Seeing these gorgeous birds on a semi-regilar basis is such a treat! Jervis Bay, NSW

I draw Aussie birds and animals and get them made into enamel pins and stickers :) I’m slowly drawing more -

Ok joking. I am surrounded by about ten of them. I have accepted my fate. Don't try to help, I have had a good life. I surrender myself to the Curlew Gods.

Believe it or not they're even noisier as babies.. whining all day, their currawong parent must be exhausted feeding her giant adopted children.

The Rainbow Lorikeets are cleaning up the last of the apples I threw out an hour or so for them

Anyone know of a good spot to see penguins on the Port Arthur peninsula in Tasmania? Birdwatching for the next 3 days and would love to see one.

We’re in Newcastle Sydney and we can hear this lovely bird go waaaweeeeo very loudly. Looking for what it might be, thanks :))
