A cute little fence sitter, Red-Capped Robin hen,
Petroica goodenovii.
Easier to get on a fence than flitting in thick scrub,
Superb Blue Wren hen, Malurus melanotus.
Finally got a clear shot in a tree, Yellow-Tailed
Thornbill, Acanthiza chrysorrhoa.

Fabulous snaps of the bird.
ReplyDeleteVery nice photos. None of those little birds sit still to have their photos taken! I've been chasing similar ones this week-end with indifferent success!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful birds, great shots of them too, day before I got close up shots of parrots on my apple tree, just beautiful, I got really close to them, I will make a post soon..cya MOnikaRose.
ReplyDeleteGreat captures Arija. I think the Blue Wren is my favorite. I love wrens in general and a blue one has to be special!
ReplyDeleteThese are all nice looking birds... I did not realise this was a weekly event.. I have Greenfinches on both my blogs today

ReplyDeleteArija: what neat birds you have in Australia.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of the birds. I, too like to photograph birds.
ReplyDeleteBTW, thanks for visiting and when I took that photo of the hibiscus I was going out between heavy rains...LOL
Great to see all the different birds in your yard. I had an eastern bluebird in my yard the other day for the first time ever. It left before I got my camera out.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful little birds.
ReplyDeleteI love your bird photos vey much, especially the first one.
ReplyDeleteI love those little birds! Have seen many 'birthings' around our neighborhood of late and know will see many more before spring is really over.
ReplyDeleteArija;) beautiful shots of your garden visitors. We don't have wrens but I recognised the "up" tail of yours which reminded me of our cameroptera. I checked in my Roberts Bird Guide for South Africa and there are two wren-warblers in our country alongside the cameroptera! Fond regards xxx
ReplyDeleteThe Wren is cute with it's upward tail.
ReplyDeleteCool birds in your neck of the woods. we have the wrnes - our Carolina wren! Great photos!
ReplyDeleteI really like the little fence sitter and your garden delights.
ReplyDeleteLove your birds! And what great shots! Thanks, Arija, as always for sharing the beauty.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots. I love the little Red-Capped Robin, just sitting on the fence .. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love your little fence sitters! Darling little birdies. Isn't it pretty hard to photograph birds? You've done a good job :)
ReplyDeleteAs always, I love seeing the birds in your garden! And I love your last posting of gold!!
ReplyDeleteI love that wren with a blue tail. We have wrens but they are really just "little brown jobs" until you see one really close to, when you see the most amazing patterns of feathers. Nice photographs Arija.
ReplyDeleteBirds are so ellusive, you did well to get such great shots!
ReplyDeleteLovely images, glad I stumbled across you blog today.
ReplyDeleteGreat job thse little guys can be tough to get..
ReplyDeleteSuper shots!
ReplyDeleteWhat nice little birdies you have in your yard! Love the blue wren hen!
ReplyDeleteBird photos always make me smile. Love the little feather pom-poms. These feathery friends visit me every morning. I fill up bird feeders, put fresh water in the birdbaths and then stand at my kitchen window with a hot cup of tea admiring their industriousness. Some must have nests on my magnolia tree as they quickly pick up seeds and go up the tree. They must repeat the trip about 10 to 15 times, and the woodpeckers are funny. When all the other birds have eaten they come down and busy themselves eating the seeds that fall between the cracks of the bricks on the floor. There are also plenty of doves. These two in particular are always together and I named them Clara and William after the old owners of the place :)Yesterday, one of the other doves hit my kitchen window and fell to the ground. I cried like a baby, got old of my garden gloves and a soft bath towel (for not knowing what else to do) and went to its rescue. The poor thing could barely move with the shock of the impact, it stayed there very still, blinking at my approach, and let itself be placed cozy in the makeshift nest of my bath towel. I tried to give it water but refused. I petted its head and said how sorry I was, but i had to leave for work and left it there with some water and seeds. When my daughter came from school the dove was gone. And here I am now hoping the little dove is safe out there...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful....!
