Superb Fairy-wren
Scientific Name: Malurus cyaneus
Description: Adult male Superb Fairy-wrens are among the most brightly coloured of the species, especially during the breeding season. They have rich blue and black plumage above and on the throat. The belly is grey-white and the bill is black. Females and young birds are mostly brown above with a dull red-orange area around the eye and a brown bill. Females have a pale greenish gloss, absent in young birds, on the otherwise brown tail. The legs are brown in both sexes. Males from further inland and in the south-west of the range have more blue on the back and underparts.
Similar species: Several other species of fairy-wren are found in Australia. The males of each species are quite distinct, but the females and young birds are often difficult to separate. Of the species that overlap in range with the Superb Fairy-wren, the female White-winged Fairy-wren Malurus leucopterus and Red-backed Fairy-wren M. melanocephalus lacks the chestnut colour around the eye, while the female Variegated Fairy-wren M. lamberti has a dull grey-blue wash. Both the Superb and White-winged Fairy-wrens are similar in size. The Variegated Fairy-wren is slightly larger in size and has a longer tail.
Distribution: Superb Fairy-wrens are found south of the Tropic of Capricorn through eastern Australia and Tasmania to the south-eastern corner of South Australia.
Habitat: Seen in most habitat types where suitable dense cover and low shrubs occur. They are common in urban parks and gardens, and can be seen in small social groups. These groups normally consist of one dominant male and several females and young birds.
Feeding: Superb Fairy-wrens feed on insects and other small arthropods. These are caught mostly on the ground, but may also be taken from low bushes. Feeding takes place in small social groups.
Breeding: The nest is a dome-shaped structure of grasses and other fine material. It is usually placed in a low bush and is constructed by the female. The female incubates the eggs alone, but both sexes feed the young. Other members of the group will also help with the feeding of the young.
Male Superb Fairy-wrens have been labelled as 'the least faithful birds in the world'. Females may be courted by up to 13 males in half an hour, and 76% of young are sired by males from outside the social group.
Calls: The Superb Fairy-wren gives a series of high pitched trills, which are given by both sexes. The male often extends these trills into song.
Minimum Size: 13cm
Maximum Size: 14cm
Average size: 14cm
Average weight: 10g
Clutch Size: Three to four.

Thanks for the comments, faves and visits
A solitary Daylily, resplendent in a blend of coral and yellow hues, emerges with grace from a bed of lush green foliage. This image beautifully captures the delicate balance of color and life after a rainstorm, with the flower's petals adorned with glistening droplets. Each drop magnifies the vivid colors and intricate details of the flower, from the gentle gradients of pink to the vibrant yellow heart. The soft, ambient light diffuses through the droplets, giving the scene a dreamlike quality. The surrounding green leaves, streaked with rainwater, form a natural backdrop that accentuates the Daylily's radiance. This tranquil snapshot of nature showcases the serene beauty that often goes unnoticed, highlighting the simple elegance of a garden in full bloom.
COMMENTS ENABLED .. Because somehow this photo made it to explore?? Okay. lol! Thanks..

I am a little behind on my 52 week challenge, but I'm getting it done as soon as I can! I've been quite busy! I have been staying steady on my 52Frames (because it's a countdown, I have to! Or I'll break my streak.. *ohh the pressure lol*)
I'm going to catch up as soon as I can. I have to do my 52Frames soon, and it's "PORTRAIT" & extra credit is "Rembrandt Lighting" - so we'll see if I get it done with the extra credit.. but either way I'll have a portrait for them by Sunday!
I've been VERY stressed out lately too, but I've been doing A LOT of praying and self reflection, and I know that it's all going to be okay. I'm remaining positive, even though sometimes it can be VERY HARD. (No worries, I'm fine! Everything is going to work out, in the right time!)
◼ The subject for WEEK 19 on my 52 WEEK is: "END OF THE LINE"!
I took quite a few different photos that I could use for this one, however.. this sign has been in my mind ever since I heard of the subject.. I took this photo on the way home from the store, and I ended up choosing this one to use.
I really love the sign underneath, about the deaf cat.. It's so unique.
I hope that you all are doing well! I have a photo shoot to do tomorrow morning (PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY for an upcoming website)- I'm excited! I'll post a photo to show you guys what I come up with.. Although I'll probably have a few good ones, I'm sure!
✨

Please, no invitations to award/forced comment groups or to those with large/animated comment codes.
This dashing medium-sized tit can be found in broadleaf and mixed hill forests, as well as adjacent parks and gardens. Utterly unmistakable, with a bright yellow face and nape, which contrast smartly with a black crest, throat, and breast. Wings are gray and black with white spots and bars. Gregarious; often in small flocks of its own species or with large mixed feeding flocks. Song is a bright, repetitive “chew-wee-ee, chew-wee-ee, chew-wee-ee.” Calls vary, but usually incorporate several sharp notes and one or two lower, buzzier notes. (eB ird)

We found this lovely, perky little tit bouncing about in the trees at the Orchid Conservation Project (beautiful gardens filled with native orchids).

Australian White Ibis (Some Australian White Ibis populations have learnt to exploit artificial foods in urban environments and are becoming pests. However, although Australian White Ibises are becoming more common in some areas, their abundance is decreasing in their natural range.)
Scientific Name: Threskiornis molucca
Description: The Australian White Ibis is identified by its almost entirely white body plumage and black head and neck. The head is featherless and its black bill is long and down-curved. During the breeding season the small patch of skin on the under-surface of the wing changes from dull pink to dark scarlet. Adult birds have a tuft of cream plumes on the base of the neck. Females differ from males by being slightly smaller, with shorter bills. Young birds are similar to adults, but have the neck covered with black feathers. In flight, flocks of Australian White Ibis form distinctive V-shaped flight patterns. Another common name for this bird is Sacred Ibis, but this more appropriately refers to a closely related African species.
Distribution: The Australian White Ibis is common and widespread in northern and eastern Australia, and both its range and abundance in western Australia is expanding, despite its absence from Western Australia prior to the 1950s. The species is absent from Tasmania.
Habitat: The Australian White Ibis can be observed in all but the driest habitats. Preferred habitats include swamps, lagoons, floodplains and grasslands, but it has also become a successful inhabitant of urban parks and gardens.The Australian White Ibis' range of food includes both terrestrial and aquatic invertebrates and human scraps. The most favoured foods are crayfish and mussels, which the bird obtains by digging with its long bill. Mussels are opened by hammering them on a hard surface to reveal the soft body inside.
Feeding: The Australian White Ibis' range of food includes both terrestrial and aquatic invertebrates and human scraps. The most favoured foods are crayfish and mussels, which the bird obtains by digging with its long bill. Mussels are opened by hammering them on a hard surface to reveal the soft body inside.
Breeding: The male Australian White Ibis secures a pairing territory on a branch of a tall tree in order to attract a female. The courtship ceremony involves the male putting on a noisy display, as well as showing aggression towards other males. When a female arrives, the male attracts her by bowing from his branch. He then offers the female a twig, forging a bond when she grasps it and they begin to preen one another. Once the pair bond is cemented, the birds fly off to build a nest at another location. Australian White Ibis nest in large colonies, often with the Straw-necked Ibis, T. spinicollis. Young are born naked and helpless. One or two broods may be reared in a year.
Calls: Drawn-out croaks.
Minimum Size: 69cm
Maximum Size: 76cm
Average size: 72cm

Following comments by Daniel Myers and James Burns and a specific question by Sccart, I managed to find on the Ephrata website an explanation of these strange buildings : they form a stage, build in 1970, and facing an amphitheater (that I had not photographed and then forgotten about, that was some 3 year ago...). It was first used for outdoor drama, and now for special programs.
That said, they are thin, but of normal height.

Common Blackbird
Turdus merula
In Australia, the Common Blackbird is often viewed as a pest, but the early pioneers were determined to ensure that Blackbirds were successfully introduced into their adopted land. Blackbirds were released dozens of times throughout south-eastern Australia, mostly in the 1860s. Though most Blackbirds are sedentary in Australia, their range has expanded and they are capable of making long-distance movements, with some regularly crossing the Bass Strait; a few have even reached subantarctic islands!
Identification: The male is the ‘black’ bird, with deep orange to yellow bill, a narrow yellow eye-ring and dark legs. The female is a brown bird, with some streaks or mottling, and has a dark bill and legs. Immature birds are similar to the female with lighter underparts. Their average size is 27cm and their average weight is 89 grams.
Songs and Calls: A repeated ‘tchook’ call and a melodious, warbling song. Bird call recorded by: Fred Van Gessel
Location: The Common Blackbird, was originally confined to Melbourne and Adelaide. It has gradually expanded its range throughout south-eastern Australia, both on the coast and inland, as far north as southern Queensland, and including Tasmania and the Bass Strait islands.
Habitat: The Common Blackbird is most often found in urban areas and surrounding localities but has successfully moved into bushland habitats. It is often seen in orchards, vineyards and gardens, as well as along roadsides and in parks.
Behaviour: The Common Blackbird can be a pest in orchards, parks and gardens, being rather destructive of ground vegetation, particularly backyard vegetable patches.
Feeding: The Common Blackbird eats insects, earthworms, snails, spiders and a range of seeds and fruit. It mainly forages on the ground, probing and scratching at leaf litter, lawns and soil.
Breeding: The Common Blackbird builds a cup-shaped nest of dried grass, bound with mud, and lined with fine grasses. It is usually placed in a tree, shrub or low bush, but they will also use tree hollows. Their clutch size is 3 to 5 eggs (usually 4 eggs) with an incubation period of 14 days and a nestling period of 14 days. Breeding season is from September to January.

PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE
So, I have a bunch of last ditch posts to make before November starts.
More info on that here: www.flickr.com/photos/142100445@N08/30320504152/in/photos...
Red and Black figs!
Here we go.
LtR
Black Widow:
She is an updated version of the one seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/142100445@N08/26842522240/in/album-...
Since that one, I changed the head, Added some leg detail, and painted on some metallic silver and flesh details.
Overall, I'm super happy with the update.
Daredevil Year One:
This guy is a Mash of all sorts of figs I've made.
The beanie is from My Reaper fig. The head is from himself (www.flickr.com/photos/142100445@N08/27827290650/in/datepo...). Torso is Star Wars. Arms are from a Scarlet witch I did and legs are from Bucky. Overall, i like the combos.
Iron Fist: Hair is from Luke Skywalker. I painted the head, but I don't remember what it was originally. All of the torso is by me. Hands are wrapped in labels and the legs are from Star-Lord.
10/10 for this bunch In my opinion!
