Bird Brain

I’m afraid to say that I have caught the birding bug. It’s pretty hard to avoid around here… today we saw a Black Fronted Dotterel and my day was made. But now my brother and sister-in-law have just arrived and we’ve cracked open a block of coconut chocolate, the kettle is on, the fire is crackling and the playful insults are already flying so I better go and join in the fun.

That bird is gorgeous! Such big eyes! Are they rare or hard to spot usually? I know nothing about birds, especially natives. Happy holidays! I’m loving your blog!

I have a friend who is terrified/hates birds, so that one there–with his beady red eyes–would send her straight to the opposite direction!
Sounds like a lovely holiday! Hope it’s been nothing but wonderful.
