Rainbow Lorrikeets

These are a few of the early morning bunch that would descend on our caravans and look for food. They should eat seeds but will make do with bread, toast and vegemite, corn flakes, rice bubbles and Weetbix.



Mountain Rosella

These are marginally larger than the Eastern Rosella. They, and the Rainbow Lorrikeets, are East Coast birds and won't be found west of the Mountains. As you head north of here these rosellas head for higher altidudes. Around Sydney you can only find them in The Blue Mountains. Another of the Early Morning Bunch.

Merimbula

At low tide the lake is a maze of sand banks and channels.

This is where the orca pod assisted the whalers in their hunting.

These birds work out REAL FAST where the easy food comes from. I had breakfast on the porch of a friend who lives in the south of Sydney. We had dozens of colourful visitors watching every bite.
