New bird


It is a shame the image is not clear but I was very excited to capture this one.  I believe it is a spotted pardelote.  I have not seen one before.  I was mowing the grass when I could hear the twitter of birds and was surprised to see a whole flock of tiny birds hopping around the grass.  I managed to grab this photo at a distance later in the day.  They have not returned since.

  2. It is always exciting to capture a new bird. I had a flock of galahs at my birdbath today and was able to grab a photo. I have not seen a spotted pardelote.

    1. I haven't seem galahs in my mountain garden for a while. In fact I have not been close enough to one to get a shot since I started this blog in July last year. Must try and fix that.

    1. Photogenic but a shame the photographer wasn't up to it.

  5. The small birds are so hard to snap Joan Elizabeth, you can see its colours though, and the pattern on its head, lovely ✨
