This week has been National Bird Week and today is the last day to submit your count for the Aussie Backyard Bird Count. It’s not too late and it only takes 20 minutes. 

For the record I counted 13 species and 29 birds in our backyard including this colourful Red-rumped parrot.

    He is beautiful. I too joined the bird count and saw 22 different species and sighted 244 birds over the 7 days. My fairy wrens were sadly absent. The Rainbow lorikeets were in excessive numbers.

    Great innitiative. And a wonderful photo of a bird which all too often hides its red rump.

    Yet again I didn’t get to do the count. I love those little parrots, they are so pretty and because they appear as we move west mean I am likely on a holiday when I see them.

    Very pretty, always nice to see our pretty birds.
    A man just a few km north of Proserpine had seen 99 different species of birds in one Caravan Park, so he said..hard to believe, yet not.

    It blows me away that you have those birds in your "backyard."
