All bull

Trying hard to avoid any emphasis on the title.... :) This is our former herd bull, a gentle giant who went by the name of "Taurus". HFF. Explored.

Yellow Thornbill

When we lived in the mountains, it was difficult photographing these little thornbills: not only were they small, but they rarely sat long enough, constantly flitting. Fortunately they were nearly always around, so there were plenty of opportunities.

Yellow-faced Honeyeater

These lovely birds were regular seasonal visitors, returning each year to nest in a nearby wattle tree. They sang beautifully, though it doesn't show in the photo. :)

Scarlet Robin (M)

These cheery little birds were frequent visitors to our farm. The essential visual clue to differentiating these from the Flame Robin is that those are charcoal grey where these are black.

Scarlet Robin (F)

To confuse things, the females of both the Scarlet Robin and Flame Robin are largely dull beige colours - but the Scarlets do have a pinkish apron.

White cockatoo arrival

These large birds, also known as Sulphur-crested cockatoos, were common visitors. They become quite tame (and often are kept as pets) but can be very destructive.
