Hi and welcome to my happy week ... following on from my Chicken episode, those girls are now definitely free range... we may need to clip their wings or put up a 2 meter fence but until then they continue to visit the neighbours (who all assure us it is fine) and come home when they're ready.
Also this week we've had a few visits from the grand daughters and Thursday we walked up to the local playground - on the way we showed Sophie the Bower Bird nest - so I took some photos thinking you may be interested. ....
The male builds the tunnel nest with sticks and then decorates the entries
This one has a fancy for mostly red to add to the white objects
and silver
even a red chilli
Very very interesting and Nanny is giving Sophie nature lessons - she seems interested and knows the names of 5 or 6 different birds.
Now if you've some happy moments or pics or just a joke, pop over to Annies blog and join in. In the meantime have a wonderful week Cheers
Hi Robyn, Hope the female Bower Bird was impressed:)

Hi Robyn. Thanks for sharing the bird nest.....no I've got to look up the Bower bird to see what clever birds does all that.

Me too Annie, not a bird I know so will be having a look to see what it's like but he obviously likes bringing his wife nice gifts Lol!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend and happy crafty week. Angela x
How interesting! I immediately went into Google to look up Bower bird as I had never heard of it. I now remember a documentary I saw on tv years ago with David Attenborough that showed a bower bird attracting a female by constructing a fancy nest with coloured objects. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteSorry for the late comment. I've been busy yesterday preparing for Tracey's birthday party. (we had a belated birthday party for her last night which was a great success).
Thanks for your kind comments,
Have a great weekend,
