On Christmas morning I was woken by a baby Kurrawong screeching that decided to visit with its mother. She continued to hunt for food and return to feed it all morning. Symbolic somehow I think being Christmas Morning and all…It was a great experience…

Here are some pics I managed to take.

Wow, what a great sequence of shots, Flux! The baby reminds me of an eagle (he's very regal). Kurrawongs are probably my favourite birds. I love their sleek black feathers and beak and their huge yellow lamp-like eyes. I also love magpies. They remind me of Kurrawongs.

What a nice Christmas scene for you.

Hey thanks for your comments. Yeah they are pretty amazing birds and I can understand why they one of your favourites. They have managed to capture my attention and I’m enjoying observing them so much.
Your comment “he’s very regal” is interesting and got me intrigued now to find out if the baby is male or female…
Who knows maybe its both…!!

You izzz so witty and clevah, Flux.

It is both the more i look at it....
Its male and regal
then again
female and valient as well...
Awww here we go again...

Flux, you are a ray of in my day.

I found a couple of old photos I took when I went through my intense bird loving phase (still love them deeply, but used to try to make friends with all of them I could find).

Putting out dog food to attract them...

...and LQQK at that handsome (or pretty depending on the gender) Kookaburra you had a visit with. You are so lucky to have them around if you’re an early riser that is.

Love em & thanks for the pic…
