Marsupial movements, feathery films and covert captures.

Some adults and then a juvenile White-winged Chough from the last day of 2018.
We were very happy to have caught this fantastic echidna on one of our motion-activated bush cameras.
A large communal group of adult and juvenile White-winged Choughs doing what choughs do; make a lot of noise and forage through the leaf litter. They are a truly rambunctious bird but one that is full of character, even if the bulging red eyes of the adults do make them look a tad demented!
There is a second bird there believe it or not! Whether it is a chick or an adult is hard to tell but we are certainly hoping it is a chick! Fingers crossed we will get some further footage soon.
A small group of White-browed Babblers sharing a dust bath. It was quite dark when this video was taken so isn't the best quality, but hopefully you will find this behaviour interesting.

One of a pair of Square-tailed Kites cruising around, I suspect looking for nesting sites in one of our large Yellow Gums. You can read more in the blog here
