The Flame robins in our garden are most active in the early morning and in the mid to late afternoon. As to movement, there's no neat pattern, but if I'm sitting anywhere in range of a perch, they will arrive before very long. Try to approach and they'll instantly flit off, which is why this occasion was unusual - after I'd got this shot, he moved to two subsequent locations, where he let me take more photos, which I'll probably post in due course. The foreground here shows some chicken wire we've used to protect the trunk of a tree from the local deer. The dark foreground is the rear of our carport, which is the black-painted front wall of the house. #flamerobin #robin #redbreast #red #yarravalley #kangarooground #abcmyphoto #abcaustralia #australianbirds #australianbirdphotography #australianbirdsofinstagram #australianfauna #australianwildlife #aussiebirds #bird #birdlife #birdlovers #birdpics #birds #birdphotography #birdstagram #birdsofmelbourne #birdsofvictoria #birdwatching #instabirds #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography

Australasian Darter (F) (Anhinga novaehollandiae)
Female Superb fairywren avoiding blackberry thorns in a way I can never manage. We have Superb fairywrens all year round, but they have been everywhere lately, entire squadrons buzzing around the garden in the endless hunt for insects. I've found that lying full length on the grass in the early morning so that I'm soaked from head to toe when I stand up is a good technique, as they quickly forget I'm there and just concentrate on the insects. Doing this at home is another good technique, as I can then walk inside and put on my non-gardening clothes, or as we refer to them here, clothes. #superbfairywren #fairywren #wren #yarravalley #kangarooground #abcmyphoto #abcaustralia #australianbirds #australianbirdphotography #australianbirdsofinstagram #australianfauna #australianwildlife #aussiebirds #bird #birdlife #birdlovers #birdpics #birds #birdphotography #birdstagram #birdsofmelbourne #birdsofvictoria #birdwatching #instabirds #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography

Charismatic......... In this series, I want to introduce you to a very charming fellow. I'm told he's so common, and sure enough, we see him here there and everywhere, but he quickly becomes my favourite bird to see. His cheeky antics and those gorgeous eyes.

As we all know, Fence-post Friday IS a thing. Is Star-picket Monday a thing? It is if this emerald-winged female King parrot says it is! She's one of several pairs of King parrots who hang out at our place, and here she's surveying one of our garden beds. In medieval Europe, artists imported lapis lazuli from the middle east, which they crushed to produce the brilliant pigments that they used to paint the Virgin Mary's ultramarine cloak. Lapis lazuli was more precious than gold: the finer the quality of the lapis, the more honour the donor who paid for the image was conferring on the Madonna. We get to enjoy the King parrot's azure back and tail-feathers for absolutely nothing. #kingparrot #lapislazuli #azure #parrot #parrotlife #abcmyphoto #abcaustralia #australianbirds #australianbirdphotography #australianbirdsofinstagram #australianfauna #australianwildlife #aussiebirds #bird #birdlife #birdlovers #birdpics #birds #birdphotography #birdstagram #birdsofmelbourne #birdsofvictoria #birdwatching #instabirds #nature #naturephotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography
