lagoon creek - ♂ red-capped robin by Chris Burns

86 13

Thank you very much for the visit and comments. Cheers.

Red-capped Robin

Scientific Name: Petroica goodenovii

Description: The male Red-capped Robin is black above and white below with a distinctive scarlet-red cap, white shoulders, and a red breast that contrasts strongly with a black throat. The black wing is barred white and the tail is black with white edges. Females are quite different in appearance: grey-brown above and off-white below, with a reddish cap, brown-black wings barred buff to white, and some have faint red on the breast. Young birds are similar to females but are streaked white above, have an pale buff wing bar and their breast and sides are streaked or mottled dark-brown.

Similar species: The Red-capped Robin is the smallest red robin. It can be distinguished from other red robins by the unique red cap in the male, and by the dull red cap in the female. Males are similar to the Crimson Chat, Epthianura tricolor, but this species has a white throat, a white eye, is not as plump and lacks the white wing streak.

Distribution: The Red-capped Robin is found from Queensland (rarely above latitude 20°S), through New South Wales, mainly west of the Great Dividing Range, to Victoria and South Australia. Also found in Western Australia in inland regions north to the Pilbara region, rarely being seen on south coast or far south-west. An isolated population occurs on Rottnest Island. Widespread in Northern Territory south of latitude 20°S. The Red-capped Robin will visit areas along the east coast during droughts.

Habitat: The Red-capped Robin is found in most inland habitats that have tall trees or shrubs, such as eucalypt, acacia and cypress pine woodlands. It is mainly found in the arid and semi-arid zones, south of the Tropics, with some extension into coastal regions. The species is seen on farms with scattered trees, as well as vineyards and orchards. It is only occasionally reported in gardens.

Seasonal movements: Partial seasonal migrant, moving to more open areas in winter, usually in south of range.

Feeding: The Red-capped Robin feeds on insects and other invertebrates. It forages on the ground or in low vegetation, and will often perch on a stump or fallen branch, darting down to take insects from the ground. Can be seen in mixed feeding flocks with other small insect-eating birds such as Willie Wagtails, Rufous Whistlers and Black-faced Woodswallows.

Breeding: Red-capped Robins breed in pairs within a breeding territory established and defended by the male. The male sings from perches around the boundary of the territory to deter other Red-capped Robins and also other robin species, such as the Scarlet Robin, P. multicolor. The female chooses a nest site in a tree-fork and builds an open, cup-shaped nest of bark, grass, and rootlets, bound together with spider web, lined with soft materials and often camoflaged with lichen, bark and mosses. The male feeds the female during nest-building and incubation. The female incubates the eggs alone and both sexes feed the young. Once the young have fledged, they may remain in their parents' territories for up to one and a half months before dispersing. Nests may be parasitised by cuckoos. Predators of nestlings include the Grey Shrike-thrush, Colluricincla harmonica, and the Grey Butcherbird, Craticus torquatus.

Research by the Australian Museum (Major et al., 1999) has shown that male Red-capped Robin density is much lower in small, linear bushland remnants than in large non-linear remnants. The small remnants represented a higher risk of predation, making them much less suitable as breeding habitat.

Calls: Males sing with characteristic dry, repeated trill: 'dit-dit-drr-it'. Both sexes have a 'tick' call.

Average size: 12cm

Average weight: 9g

Breeding season: June to January

Clutch Size: Two or three; occasionally one, rarely four.

Incubation: 13 days

Nestling Period: 14 days

lagoon creek - square-tailed kite by Chris Burns

Your comments and faves are greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Square-tailed Kite

Scientific Name: Lophoictinia isura

Although it usually occurs singly, the Square-tailed Kite is sometimes seen soaring in pairs during the breeding season, and family groups of adults and one or two dependent young may be seen during post-fledging period. The Square-tailed Kite usually hunts by flying low over the treetops, occasionally plunging down through the foliage to snatch a bird or insect from among the leaves or twigs. The species often eats the nestlings of birds, and sometimes it will remove the entire nest to get at the young birds, and at other times may remove the tiny birds, one clutched tightly by the talons of each foot. They also catch adult birds by surprising them in the canopy of the forest.

Description: Often solitary, but can be seen in pairs when nesting. Squared-tailed Kites have a long, square tail with very long, upswept paddle-shaped wings and a large cream crescent at the base of their wing tips.

Similar Species: Immature Black Kite, Black-breasted Buzzard, and Red Goshawk

Distribution: Endemic to mainland Australia.

Habitat: The species mainly inhabits open eucalypt forests and woodlands, often where there is a broken canopy, but it also ranges into nearby open habitats. In southern Australia, Square-tailed Kites mainly inhabit open eucalypt forests and woodlands, often dominated by stringybarks, peppermints or box–ironbark eucalypts, as well as Woollybutt, Spotted Gum, Manna Gum, Messmate, River Red Gums, as well as other trees such as Angophora, cypress-pines and casuarinas. It also occurs along the edges of dense forest and along in road verges with remnant or planted trees, and in clearings within forest or in areas of regrowth, up to 4 years after the area has been logged. Other habitats which occasionally support Square-tailed Kites include mallee, heathland (mallee or coastal) and other low shrublands including saltbush plains, and also grasslands or open or cultivated farmland near remnant woodland.

Feeding: Searching for prey from the air, where they are highly agile at low levels, they mainly hunt in eucalypt open forest or woodland, and less often in low shrublands, heath, grassland or crops, and the margins between open and timbered country (forest–heath; woodland–heath; forest–open field; mallee–open paddocks; woodland edges; riparian timber; belts of trees in urban or semi-urban areas; and clearings in forests) are especially favoured. They specialise in hunting among trees, twisting between and below tree-tops, and they take most prey from the outer foliage of the canopy, but do not enter the canopy.

Breeding: Square-tailed Kites nest on horizontal branches in mature living trees, especially eucalypts, often near water, and they need extensive areas of forest or woodland surrounding or nearby.

Calls: Yelping, yeep, yeep, yeep. Also squealing ee ee ee ee

Minimum Size: 50cm

Maximum Size: 55cm

Average size: 53cm

Average weight: 568g

Breeding season: Aug - Dec

Incubation: 37 days

Nestling Period: 63 days

The historical Kolksluis of Spaarndam by Johan Konz

35 10

The historical Kolksluis of Spaarndam, opened in the year 1280, on a beautiful day in 2016.

Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments.

De Kolksluis Spaarndam is de oudste nog werkende sluis van Europa, gelegen in Spaarndam in de Nederlandse gemeente Haarlem. Aan de noordzijde van de Kolksluis ligt het IJ en ten zuiden ervan ligt het Spaarne.

In het begin van het jaar 1200 damde men het Spaarne af van het IJ met als doel om zoutwater en een hoge waterstand afkomstig uit het IJ tegen te gaan in het Spaarne en de landerijen die er rondom liggen. In de dam (Spaarndammerdijk) legde men spuisluizen aan om zo het waterpeil te reguleren, waarbij met gelijk peil de schepen erdoor konden varen. Ook vond hier overslag plaats van zeegaande schepen op binnenvaartschepen om de vracht naar Haarlem en verder te vervoeren.

In 1253 werd door Willem II van Holland opdracht gegeven om in de Spaarndammerdijk een schutsluis aan te leggen, gefinancierd door het bedrijfsleven van Haarlem, die in het beheer kwam van het Hoogheemraadschap van Rijnland. In 1280 kwam de sluis gereed. Bij de aanleg maakte men gebruik van een kolk die bij een eerdere dijkdoorbraak ontstaan is, daarom kolksluis geheten. Doordat deze sluis twee deuren had, konden schepen onafhankelijk van het tij de sluis passeren en niet meer enkel met gelijke waterstand. Aanvankelijk had de sluis hefdeuren waardoor alleen kleine schepen met een gestreken mast konden passeren, maar ze kreeg in 1300 puntdeuren zodat ook grotere schepen er door konden.

Bij de sluis ontstond er bedrijvigheid die voornamelijk gericht was op de passerende schepen.

Door aanleg van andere sluizen en ook grotere sluizen raakte de Kolksluis in 1927 in onbruik. Enige jaren daarvoor had men de ongeveer 200 meter oostelijker gelegen sluis uitgebreid, thans Grote Sluis geheten, deze nam de functie van de Kolksluis over. De Kolksluis is toen gerestaureerd.

river bend - silver eye by Chris Burns

Your comments and faves are greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Silvereye

Zosterops lateralis

Identification: The Silvereye is a small bird with a conspicuous ring of white feathers around the eye and belongs to a group of birds known as white-eyes. The Silvereye shows interesting plumage variations across its range. The grey back and olive-green head and wings are found in birds through the east, while western birds have a uniformly olive-green back. Breeding birds of the east coast have yellow throats, pale buff flanks (side of the belly) and white on the undertail. Tasmanian birds have grey throats, chestnut flanks and yellow on the undertail. To complicate this, the birds in the east have regular migrations within Australia and may replace each other in their different areas for parts of the year. Birds in Western Australia have yellowish olive, rather than grey, backs

Location: Silvereyes are more common in the south-east of Australia, but their range extends from Cape York Peninsula, Queensland, through the south and south-west to about Shark Bay, Western Australia. They are also found in Tasmania.

Habitat: Urban, Woodland, Forest. Silvereyes may occur in almost any wooded habitat, especially commercial orchards and urban parks and gardens.

Habitat: The Silvereye can travel great distances during migration, with Silvereyes from the most southerly regions of Tasmania travelling all the way up to Southern Queensland. Birds are seen alone, in pairs or in small flocks during the breeding season, but form large flocks in the winter months.

Feeding: Silvereyes feed on insect prey and large amounts of fruit and nectar, making them occasional pests of commercial orchards. Birds are seen alone, in pairs or in small flocks during the breeding season, but form large flocks in the winter months.

Breeding: Silvereye pairs actively defend a small territory. The nest is a small, neatly woven cup of grasses, hair, and other fine vegetation, bound with spider web. It is placed in a horizontal tree fork up to 5m above the ground. The nest is constructed by both sexes, who both also incubate the bluish-green eggs. If conditions are suitable two to three clutches will be raised in a season.

Songs and Calls: The contact call, a thin “psip”, is given persistently.

Your comments and faves are greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

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.

PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE!

I messed up my upload schedule, so I’ll either post another today or two tomorrow.

Deadshot-

Simple combo. All really self explanatory. I’ll end up making a head for the group shot.

Bane-

A more classic version using some The Dark Knight inspiration. I really like it, but I think my old bane is still better. I’ll probably switch back for the group.

Thanks!
