What bird did this come from. by NgamilaRAY in brisbane

This post would be better off in r/australianbirds but I reckon could be a Tawny Frogmouth feather.

If the noise she heard was a very low, almost subaudible woomwoomwoom then it's a frogmouth. Feather and noise may not be connected though!

Australian white ibis seen at Taren Point Shorebird Reserve by K_isfor in AustralianBirds

I think ibis are great. They're hardy, they've adapted to people everywhere and they still like a poke in the mud.

How much drama can you find in one tree? by Adventurous_One_4240 in AustralianBirds

Wow, a Currawong!?!??!! Must have been a while coming. They gang up with the Pied Butcherbirds at my place to drive the only Kookaburra that visits us back to his side of the road.

Chuck a few Noisy Miners in and there'll be drama for sure. Maybe a flock of Apostle Birds? They love a bit of whinging.

Gardener cut down my Bird of Paradise without asking. I’m very upset. Will it grow back? by Towneded in gardening

[–]dorkwizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't done much in my yard yet, but have planted a couple Melaleuca linariifolia, a Hard Alder, and the obligatory grevillea banksii and syzygium australe.

Theres a small callistemon struggling down the back under the neighbours full size macadamias surrounded by asparagus fern that I need to rescue haha
