Birds seen in a garden in Pechey area - by Tricia Allen

In the absence of an outing on 05 April, I decided to have an outing in our garden with our daughter Carolyn. This turned into two separate one-hour sessions. These are the birds seen and heard in order of their appearance.

Grey Butcherbird, Eastern Whipbird, Eastern Spinebill, Currawong, Magpie, Brown Honeyeater, Lewins Honeyeater, Yellow-faced Honeyeater, Kookaburra, Brown Cuckoo Dove, Striated Pardalote, Red-browed Finch, Brown Thornbill, Noisy Friarbird, Red-backed Fairywren, Superb Blue Wren, Eastern Yellow Robin, Scarlet Honeyeater, Pale-headed Rosella, Pied Butcherbird, Fan-tailed Cuckoo, Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo.

Carolyn's photo is of a scarlet honeyeater, which has run out of the red callistemon it usually frequents but seems perfectly happy in the salvias at our front door.
