We're filled with them down here - by the hundreds - the great blues have already nested and had their young - the youngsters are getting pretty big and I'd expect they'll be sticking around another couple of weeks before they fly off.

Ours are probably still nesting. It has just started to warm up here! Just hit 60 for the first time today!

Just getting back to this - we've been Down Under for the past few weeks.

 

Although this was taken when we first got to Sydney I have to post a bird pic to go with everyone else's. We were eating lunch at the zoo and this little guy came down to beg - he ate pieces of bread out of my hand. I have no idea what he is - couldn't find him in the bird book I got.

 

 

These were taken at the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney. The QVB was built in 1898 as a project to provide jobs during a depression and was restored to it's former glory.
