Looks like a dead animal, a pig's head, or just a washed-up tree stump on the edge of the Ering am Inn flood polder.
Wellies the wild rabbit looks up as his nose twitches
thinking this looks tasty!
Wild rabbits love dandelions even after they've turned to white fluff.
It is hot and humid and even worse tomorrow and much of the week.
Looks better in the large format. (Click L)

The expectant looks on the faces of these two chicks as they search for signs that mum has food to give them.
Each chick has a dot of white near the tip of their beak and it was fun watching them walking quickly across the lily pads to get to the food bought to them.
It is interesting how the tip of mum's open beak has cast its shadow on the lily pad located immediately behind her and the first chic.
I spent over an hour photographing these coots and watching mum and dad foraging for food. Every now and again dad would wander off, up or down the river attending to perimeter defense.
As adults, [all] coots have a drab color scheme, with black bodies and white bills. Their chicks, however, have an aesthetic that’s part drunk friar, part disheveled lion, and part tequila sunrise. Their faces and bald pates are bright red, while their necks are encircled in scruffy yellow-orange plumes - extract from an article by Ed Yong, "The Survival Advantage of Being a Fancy Baby Coot" printed in 'The Atlantic', date unknown
New Holland Honeyeater (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae)
We went for a walk to the Heathdale - Glen Orden Wetlands today. There were very few birds around. While waiting to see if the Reed Warblers - that we could hear in the reeds in the pond behind the local Events Centre - would pop up for a shot, this Honeyeater saw something tasty on the 'branch' below.
The berries are a source of food for some songbirds, but are poisonous to humans.

It looks like I got another life bird at Ken Hahn Park. I would have dismissed this chunk of a bird as a Hermit Thrush but another birder put the Swainson's on our radar. The bird stayed on the ground or on low branches in the shade of the Schotia Tree.
"During summer, look—and especially listen—for the Swainson’s Thrush and its distinctive, spiraling song in closed forests of northern North America and the West. Swainson’s Thrushes become numerous across most of forested North America during migration in spring and fall. Though these birds can be hard to spot on the ground in a dim forest understory, they sing frequently in summer and call frequently during migration. In the breeding season, listen for the species’ beautiful, flutelike song coming from rich forest. "allabouboids
"... the birds have a double voice box, unique to them, called the syrinx. A fine singer like a thrush can voice notes independently and simultaneously from each half of its syrinx, notes which blend brilliantly as ethereal, harmonious tones."birdnote.org

Reflecting back to last year and the end of 2016 when I was treated to regular sightings of these occasional winter migrants.
Looks like we will have to wait now until the end of the year to have a chance of seeing these beautiful birds.
