Bushland … wonderland

Posted on June 28, 2022 by | 3 Comments

I observed my first Flame Robin for the season way back in late April.

There have been regular sightings since, but none so lucky as this … the male posed directly in front of me, one of several, while a female foraged in the mossbeds below.

Despite the cold and bleak conditions, the local bush is a wonderland at present.

    I am so enjoying your wonderful photographs of the Red – capped and Flame Robins, thank you Geoff. Winter wonderland indeed.
