Leaden Flycatcher
Scientific Name: Myiagra rubecula
Description: The Leaden Flycatcher is a small bird, mainly dark blue grey above and white below, with a small crest and a broad black-tipped blue bill surrounded by small bristles. It is sexually dimorphic (two forms), with males having entirely dark blue-grey upperparts, head and chest, while females have a blue-grey head and back with a distinctive reddish orange chin, throat and breast merging gradually into white lower parts, as well as a pale eye-ring. Young birds are brown-grey above with streaked wings and mottled brown chests with a reddish wash. Flycatchers have small rictal bristles around their bills. These are modified feathers that act as sensors to help the bird capture flying insects.
Similar species: The Leaden Flycatcher is similar to both the Broad-billed Flycatcher,M. ruficollis, and the Satin Flycatcher, M. cyanoleuca. Both sexes of the Broad-billed Flycatcher are similar in colouring, but lighter and less glossy, to the female Leaden Flycatcher. They differ by having a broader, wide-based bill and a brighter orange on the chest; this species is also found only in far northern tropical habitats. The very similar (and sexually dimorphic) Satin Flycatcher has females and young birds that tend to be darker above, while the males have more glossy heads and chests and a darker chest, wings and tail.
Distribution: The Leaden Flycatcher is found across northern Australia and down the east coast of Australia, from the Kimberley region, Western Australia to eastern Victoria. It is a vagrant to the Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia and to Tasmania. It is also found in New Guinea and nearby islands.
Habitat: The Leaden Flycatcher is found in tall and medium open forests, mainly in coastal areas, preferring drier habitats than the Satin Flycatcher.
Seasonal movements: Southern populations make seasonal movements northwards in winter to northern Queensland and Papua New Guinea, returning south to breed in spring. Northern populations tend to be sedentary or only locally nomadic.
Feeding: The Leaden Flycatcher feeds on insects caught while on the wing or gleaned from foliage. They feed in the mid-canopy, darting from tree to tree in pairs or alone, perching only briefly on exposed twigs where they call and fan their short crests.
Breeding: The Leaden Flycatcher builds a shallow, cup-shaped nest of bark and grass held together by spider web and decorated with pieces of bark and lichen, on an exposed limb about 3 m to 25 m above the ground. Both sexes build the nest, incubate the eggs and feed the young. Unlike most other flycatchers, both adults may call from the nest.
Calls: Clear, loud repeated whistling: 'too-whit' or 'too-whee'; also, harsh rattles and buzzes
Minimum Size: 14cm
Maximum Size: 16cm
Average size: 15cm
Average weight: 13g
Breeding season: September to November in south; August to February in north.
Clutch Size: 2 to 3
Incubation: 15 days
Nestling Period: 15 days

Brown Treecreeper
Scientific Name: Climacteris picumnus
Description: The Brown Treecreeper is the largest of Australia's treecreepers. It is mostly pale brown in plumage. Birds of northern Queensland are darker brown. The head, throat and upper breast are pale greyish-brown, while the lower breast and belly are strongly streaked with black and buff. In flight, a buff stripe can be seen in the wing. The sexes are similar, except females have rufous edges to the feathers of the upper breast, while in the male these edges are black. Young Brown Treecreepers resemble the adults, but are duller, have less obvious stripes on the underparts and the lower belly is a pale rufous colour.
Similar species: Other treecreeper species that overlap in range with the Brown Treecreeper include the White-browed Treecreeper, Climacteris affinis, and the White-throated Treecreeper, Cormobates leucophaeus. The White-browed Treecreeper is darker grey-brown with a more distinct white stripe above the eye (edged with red-brown in the female). The eyebrow of the Brown Treecreeper is less distinct and is more buff. The smaller White-throated Treecreeper has much darker upperparts, a contrasting white throat and little or no marks above the eye.
Where does it live?
Habitat: Found in the drier open forests and woodlands, the Brown Treecreeper stays in the same area all year round.
Feeding: The Brown Treecreeper climbs up the trunks and branches of trees in search of food. It probes into cavities and under loose bark with its long downward curving bill. In this way it searches for insects and their larvae. The most favoured insects are ants. Some feeding also takes place on the ground on fallen logs. Sometimes, birds can be seen diving on ground-dwelling prey from a perch in a tree. Feeding normally takes place in pairs or small groups.
Breeding: The nest is a collection of grasses, feathers and other soft material, placed in a suitable tree hollow or similar site. Both sexes build the nest, but the female alone incubates the eggs. Pairs often have two broods during each breeding season. Occasionally, other birds ("helpers") assist the breeding pair with building of nest and feeding the young chicks. Brown Treecreepers are highly sociable birds, living and breeding communally. Each year, the previous year's offspring will remain to help the breeding male feed the female and rear new chicks. Interestingly, it is usually only males which remain to perform this duty.
Calls: The Brown Treecreeper has a loud 'spink' call, which is given either singly or in a series, and normally betrays its presence before the bird is seen.
Minimum Size: 16cm
Maximum Size: 18cm
Average size: 17cm
Average weight: 33g
Breeding season: June to January
Clutch Size: 2 to 3 eggs
Incubation: 17 days
Nestling Period: 26 days

Message to Cleggon: Don't tamper with Democratic processes..NO to 55%
April 26 2010 : "It's now all becoming clear - the great plan of Nick Clegg's is becoming clear- he's only interested in one thing and that is changing our electoral system so that we have a permanent hung Parliament, we have a permanent coalition, we never have strong and decisive government."

After work a couple weeks ago, I stopped by the art festival in Hammonton, New Jersey to visit and pay my cousin some support ! *So happy for her*. I went to visit her at her booth, which was awesome BTW! (She is such a talented artist!) I have always been her # 1 fan.. and her mine! :)
Well, we parked our car over by the antique shop.. So on our way out we decided to swing by the antique shop (which we do a couple times a month or more.. to check out what they have!) And I had my camera with me, (because I took some photos of Lori at her art stand).. So I decided to take some photos.. (not even thinking about the challenge). I was really intrigued by this doll. AT FIRST, I thought she was creepy.. But after photographing her an looking at this photo.. I've begun to love her. She is very old and slightly damanged.. and I think that's what really creeped me out about her. However, I think she's beautiful.. and I hope she finds a great home! And for the price she was..I KNOW that whoever buys her will take VERY good care of her! So that makes me happy.. Because she seems so lonely to me. If I was okay with spending the amount that was on her price tag on a doll, I might have considered it.. But she's just gorgeous. And I love her. I'm so glad I took this photo..

I hope that everyone out there is doing well. I've been really REALLY enjoying church every week. We've begun our OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD & I also have got a couple of my co-workers involved too (which is awesome)! If you're unaware of what *Operation Christmas Child* is.. I'll briefly explain: Each year we get a shoebox and a list of OK items. We pick an age group and fill the box for them.. (toys and essentials). Juan and I always choose the older children (11-14yrs I believe) - he does a boy and I do a girl. We choose that particular age because apparently most people want to do YOUNG children so they have the least amount of gifts for the older kids.. So we make sure to cater to them each year. Anyway, you can fill the box with essentials (soap, tools, sewing kits, fishing kits, hair brushes, notebooks, pencils and sharpeners etc.. & something special *like one main item*. You can also include a note / photo of yourself. - When the child receives this shoebox filled with goodies, they also get a lesson on Jesus Christ.. and a booklet to teach them about him. They are told about how people from far away care about them so much and want to bring them closer to God and help them. **
--
>> So also, we were told that many of the boxes go to teh whole family.. So the child brings them home and maybe the mom gets the sewing kit, the dad some tools, etc.. So we make sure to think about that when filling the boxes. Doing this each year REALLY means A LOT to us!
>>Also, the past couple weeks at church they showed us some videos.. Some of the videos are of the children telling their story of when they received the box.. and the lesson about Jesus.. and how it changed their lives, etc. And how NOW they believe in God.. & they're so grateful for that box. etc.
So, a couple weeks ago they showed us a video of HOW SOME OF THE BOXES GET TO THESE CHILDREN..
>>>It BLEW OUR MINDS!! I still cannot get over what I saw!
-First it shows them loading up the boxes into planes, boats, etc. Then it shows them getting to the larger cities in jungles, etc around the world.. Then it shows dedicated indivudals who risk their health/sometimes lives even (to venture into the jungles/mountains/even walk across streams on slippery logs) carrying several boxes, or bags of boxes with them... a group of people.. carrying these boxes to little villages in the middle of no where. Then it shows them sitting around while the children learn about God.. and giving the kids the boxes. I cried.
.. It is such a great feeling. I am so grateful to be able to be a part of this mission each year.
If anyone is interested in it, you could message me and I can send you a link TO the project.. *It's a big charity organization thing*. And it's my favorite .. it's so beautiful and it makes me feel so good.
I just found out that they actually recommend collecting stuff for the boxes ALL year each year.. I guess when you see a sale, etc. So we're going to do that now for next year.. We actually just found a sale on cray ons, markers, notebooks, and colored pencils at Walmart the other day (25 cent and 15 cents - YES you read right!) So we bought EXTRA - for this year and next year. Pretty awesome.
Juan found the coolest little hammer for his box, for the boy... It's a smaller metal hammer with approx 5 screwdrivers and stuff INSIDE the handle.. (it's so cool how it works) i was blown away and I'm so glad he found it! He also got the boy stuff for fishing, sewing, a tape measure, among many other things..
______________
I just thought I'd let you all know what's going on and how I've been.. We're DOING VERY WELL! - Praying for you ALL- ALWAYS! Have a fantastic week!

Taskmaster, focused on the task of breaking into the case where the weapon was, failed to notice the body of Deadpool crawling to it's head. As the body reached the head it leaped to it's feet and placed the head on it's shoulders.
"That is one heck of a headache!"
Taskmaster turns his attention to Deadpool. His eyes widen underneath his mask.
"How?"
"One thing you'll never be able to mimic of mine. Regeneration. Thirteen out of fourteen Doctors approve."
Taskmaster unsheathes his sword.
"I won't need it."
"Well we'll see about that."
Deadpool runs towards Taskmaster. As he gets close to him he jumps over him doing a front flip in the process. Deadpool punches the glass of the case and rips out the sword from it's pedestal.
"What does this weapon even do? Any volunteers?"
Deadpool points the tip of the sword towards Taskmaster and smiles underneath his mask.
"You sir! You are the next contestant on the Chopping Block! "
Deadpool raises the sword high above his head.
"I have the power!
As Deadpool begins to swing the sword towards him, Taskmaster pulls out a smoke pellet from his belt and throws it at the ground. The smoke distracts Deadpool long enough for Taskmaster to make an escape from the vault.
"Skeletor!"

Cockatiel
Scientific Name: Nymphicus hollandicus
Description: The Cockatiel is an unusual member of the cockatoo family. It is small in size, and has a slender body and long pointed tail, which is more characteristic of the smaller parrots. Its plumage is mostly grey, paler below, with a white wing patch, orange cheeks and a distinctive pointed crest. The male can be identified by its bright yellow forehead, face and crest. Young Cockatiels resemble the adult female, although the young males usually have a brighter yellow face. The Cockatiel is not found naturally in any other country, but is a popular cage bird, second only to the Budgerigar, Melopsittacus undulates. The Cockatiel does not have the screeching voice of many other parrots and may learn to 'speak'.
Distribution: The Cockatiel is widespread throughout mainland Australia, but is uncommon in Tasmania, with only a few sightings being reported to date.
Habitat: The Cockatiel is seen in pairs or small flocks, in most types of open country, usually near water. It is common throughout its range, especially in the north and the more arid inland areas.
Seasonal movements: Throughout its range, the Cockatiel is strongly nomadic, moving around in response to the availability of food and water.
Feeding: Cockatiels feed on a variety of grass seeds, nuts, berries and grain. They may feed either on the ground or in trees, and always in small to large numbers. Cockatiels roost in trees near water and travel from these areas in large flocks to feeding grounds.
Breeding: Cockatiels may breed at any time, in response to suitable periods of rain, especially in the more arid regions. Both sexes share the incubation of the eggs, which are laid in a hollow, high up in trees. Suitable trees are either in or close to water. Cockatiels enter the nest hollow tail first.
Calls: Although mostly silent, the Cockatiel gives a long and distinctive "queel-queel" in flight. It does not have the screeching voice of many other parrots and may learn to 'speak'.
Minimum Size: 30cm
Maximum Size: 33cm
Average size: 32cm
Average weight: 90g
Breeding season: Normally July to December in south of range
Clutch Size: 2 to 9, usually 5
Incubation: 19 days
Nestling Period: 30 days
