There is a small colony on one of the islands. They have pretty much killed all the island trees with their white wash.😀 Isle Lake.

If you wish, zoom in to see the raindrops :)
The pair that are hanging around my nesting box. I am not sure if they have babes yet. I think they are just getting the next ready. In this image you can see that the female has a bit of blue on her tail feathers, where the male is such a neon....vibrant blue. They both are SO gorgeous!!! They fly so swiftly and look like they are going to crash against the box, but instead land on the side and hang on with those little claws. Very cool to watch!!!
Have a great week ahead and be well.
the osprey are nesting in the same nest again now so I'm excited. I will go back periodically and check on them and take photos. And thankfully now, I won't be lugging a toddler size lens and a tripod. Yah!!! I love this much smaller size and lighter weight equipment!
I go see my ortho doc this morning and hopefully won't have to wear my cast anymore. Things are healing well. Let's hope that's what the ex-ray will show. I'll catch up with you all later! ❤️
We came across two Robins the other day, at Lackford Lakes, a Suffolk Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve. One, the female, was collecting nesting material and the other one, a male presumably, was singing for a mate.
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fav my images.
A new backyard bird is nesting in a bird house that my daughters made years ago - - such a pleasant song can be heard all day long from the House Wren.

Australasian Grebe (Tachybaptus novaehollandiae)
I hadn't been past the Vic Uni Pond since last Wednesday. This morning I found one of the adults apparently sitting on a new nest. I will have to keep an eye on them.
I saw this Sacred Ibis sitting on the nest last weekend when I took a short walk at a park. It wasn't easy to focus as he or she was partially hidden behind the greenery. Sacred Ibis are a rather rare sight here as they are native to sub-Saharan Africa. In current heat wave they probably feel very much at home here, though.
I was amazed to see that our pair of swans at a local country park have built their nest this year right next to the footbridge near the play area. The female seemed quite undisturbed by the nearby noise or me and my camera as I lay sprawled on the bridge. It was impossible to get wider angles as I was shooting through the fence and only had my 100mm lens. What a treat to be so close to such beauty in the warm light just before sunset.
Magpie Lark (Grallina cyanoleuca) male
Lovely to see Dad sitting on the nest outside the Werribee Mercy Hospital.
I went to clean the old wren nest out of this birdhouse at Chipera Prairie and found this cute little deer mouse using the abandoned birdhouse as its cozy winter home. Since there won't be any house wrens around to start nesting again until next May, I let the deer mouse keep its new claim until then.
On a small lake near Show Low, AZ. Every year at the end of March, they close access to this lake so as not to disturb the nesting double-crested cormorants.
We went for a drive and stopped off at the Bowral cemetery. We went for a wander looking at the gravestones, trees, flowers and birds. We discovered a noisy miner nest with a pair of adults working hard with three hungry babies to feed. It was a very well constructed nest.
