A Kookaburra that I was watching hunt, flying to and from the ground finding large bugs. I like how the overcast weather created some very vibrant colours.

Always nice to get a cool, refreshing drink on a stinking hot day 🔥☀️

Perons Tree Frog is a regular inhabitant in the car port
We get some big female Huntsman Spiders can be 130mm or bigger. This one is about half that size so maybe a male. Anyway they are welcome in the house ... except in the bedrooms 😀
This morning we had two welcome visitors in the house, a Huntsman Spider and Perons Tree Frog, life in the bush

Profile shot of a skittish sulphur-crested cockatoo with a fully erect crest, perched on a deck railing, with lush green foliage in the background. These critters come down looking for seed, which we occasionally put out. But they are not fully comfortable on our deck, which is the way it should be.

Today's visitor is not so sure they actually wanted to visit.

How sad 😔 Tagging the #auswildlife and #wildoz feeds
This little cutie has been visiting us for a few weeks now. We recently moved the garden camera to see who uses this water bowl and have been able to catch this little rosella a few times.

A spotted-tail quoll, alert and facing the camera. It is standing on a cut log.
Our local quoll showed up again and this time I actually managed to get a decent picture. This might be the best thing that has ever happened to me. #auswildlife #wildoz #marsupial #mammal
It’s been a hot few days in the Perth Hills and the bird baths have been in high demand from lots of our garden wildlife.
Like this lovely Bronze Wing, who had a good long bathe today… I think he was in there for at least 5 minutes 🪶💧

The last popn of the #auswildlife #southerngreaterglider (Petauroides volans) in the western Strathbogie Ranges numbers less than 100. It has survived land clearing, fire and genetic bottleneck. Can it survive an uncertain #climate future? 🌏

If you put out fresh water for the wildlife in your garden maybe consider topping it up each evening for our nocturnal critters… they’ll be grateful for a drink on a hot day too💧

After the excitement of a South-western Brush-tailed Phascogale visiting the garden last week, we finally set up the #trailcam!
Success on night one! Four Common Brushtail Possums visited the garden water bath for a drink last night 😍

Large carpet python on the ground and well camouflaged amongst green and brown foliage. It wouldn't be able to move too well after an obvious recent meal. I'm guessing possum. It was preparing to give me a nip when I eventually noticed it. Thankful it gave me the benefit of the doubt.

Not getting bitten by a large #snake you nearly stepped on while gardening is right up there on my list of thing to achieve every day.
This beauty seems to be resting after a successful hunt.
