Thanks. I take it you dont mind me posting them here then @Shirley Martin. I see your have returned to your simple North Carolina country girl look.
Not at all. I love all the colorful birds. I have been told that Australia has some of the most beautiful birds in the world.
I can show you more if you want.. all unique to my country. Such as these little beauties. There are no fewer that 8 varieties of the Australian Cockatiel.. Here are two.
I love Willy wagtails @Craig Swanson I call them bossy boots they are so bossy I seen one take on a magpie that was sitting on the ground the WW kept at attacking it every time it tried to fly off , Aggressive is an understatement for these brave little birds At 20 cm long, the black-and-white willy wagtail is the largest Australian fantail. Willie wagtails are active feeders. They can be seen darting around on the ground as they hunt for insects, their tails wagging from side to side. Aggressive and territorial, willy wagtails often harass much larger birds such as kookaburras and wedge-tailed eagles. Tjukurpa tells how tjintir-tjintirpa (willy wagtail) hears faint sounds of singing and realises that the ceremonies of the Mala (rufous hare-wallaby) people have started. To show how pleased she is, she smiles and forms Ikari, a cave near Mutitjulu Waterhole where you can still find willy wagtails today.
So do I @Milla Jonas. Yes they are bossy. They are also not as scared of humans as many other birds. There used to be one that came and sat on my clothes line every day. I approached him and he did not fly away. I have not seen one at my place for some time but I often hear their call. Are they natives? I expect so if they are called the Australian Fantail. That quote above sounds like something from the Dreamtime.
Link where I got above info @Craig Swanson https://parksaustralia.gov.au/uluru/do/birdwatching/willy-wagtail/ I had a pair? come to my little garden for about 3 years , they appeared to bring young ones with them as if to say LOOK !!.....they would have a wonderful time fluttering / calling / catching insects in my little ( tiny) patch of earth When I say a pair TBH I have no idea what the difference is between a male and female WW cause they all look the same to me Then a new neighbour moved in with 3 cats and “MY “ WW were never to be seen again
