Today's weather

It's been mostly sunny, but there has been rain the last few days.

Birds

The bronzewing has been around! Only one we think, the male. He has been ooming on the carpark side of the river. This morning though (Nov 30) we spotted him sitting on the new seating area by the river! (photo below)
We are still seeing duck families around - including one with very fresh fluffy ducklings in the riverside caravan park

Yellow faced honey eater pair still around
The tall grevillea tree on Bailey street is in flower and the friar birds have all moved in!
Last week (Monday?) there was a little rain over the weekend and we had two herons in the back ditch - a white faced and a pacific!
We've had a kookaburra on our fence a few times over the last week. It seems to be taking its kills over the back somewhere, so maybe nestlings?
The kangaroo paws out the back are getting repeated visits from spinebills and wattlebirds, and the occasional yellow face.
The side grevillea has totally finished flowering, but the front callistemon is in full flower, so we are still getting honey eaters in there, including friar birds occasionally (the funniest alarm clocks!)

The white flowered bushes are in full flower and looking amazing. I found that they are Kunzea ambigua (also called woolly paperbark and tick bush) and are in the leptospermum family.
The case moth is still munching away happily in the side grevillea. The paper wasp nest on the gas cylinder pipe does now appear abandoned (after it looked for a while like it had been taken back for a bit.)
