Australian Cormorant. There are several species, I think the Aussie slag name for them all is shag.

Don't know the species of this bird. Took photo on the north coast of Tasmania.

It's a goldfinch.

Thanks Nev. I kept looking for some type of spinebill without any success.

It's a goldfinch.

Up by Huay Kaew Waterfall.









Don't recall ever seeing one before.

But it let me get close enough for me crappy Samsung's focus to become ineffective.

^Very pretty Lui

I was joined in my study tonight by a small guest.

My furry friend was dispatched by a clubbing with a king size pepper mill.



Having recently watched Alone Season 5 I was curious how much nutrition he would contain.



Mouse or rat?

^Small rat, looking at the tail. Nice hunting.

Baby kangalooo judging by the pose.

Always nice when you find a fluffy tit or two....

I think it might have been a mouse.

Mouse tail:



Big ears and pointy nose (rats have small ears and a blunt nose)

I think I need to clean the camera lens.

Anyway ... the closest I've ever got to a Pteropus poliocephalus (grey headed Fruit Bat/Flying Fox)

Photographed through a double pane of glass with two very excited 5yo's bouncing around.

Not my video, but this is them in flight ...

[David48atTD]

The magpies have been fed a little over the years, just to keep them friendly.

I can hand feed to parents. They bring their young 'uns into our garden.

Still haven't cleaned that lens!

Mum on the left. Baby with mouth open


Again, not my video, but a common sound in my backyard for probably the next month or two ...

[Mendip]

A couple of geckos getting it on in our kitchen.

Comes to something when you're envious of a lizard!

[Mendip]

Or even a snake for that matter (in our snake house...)

A group of tortoises at Korat zoo.



OK... so maybe I've got stuff on my mind... been away at work for over five weeks and it's just got extended...

^Oooh yeah baby, take it

Not found under the dunny seat but in the wood pile this weekend...

We call it vermin, Jeff calls it lunch.

Well, go on then. How slow and painful would the death be?
