CrazyCresties Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 So in between the many rain showers on Saturday, I managed to get out into the garden for an hour to try and get my pic for the 52 week challenge. I ended up getting more than the one pic I needed So thought I would share some of the others here - hope you enjoy them Indy Carnabys in the rain and trying to get rid of the crows Soggy Caterpillar that looked like a little jewel Adventurous snail that made it to the top! And finally a little lizard I had to move back outside after it found its way into the kitchen It was a busy hour in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mim Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 So that's what those birds are called! They must be THE most annoying birds on the planet! Damn you carnabys! They love the huge tree in our backyard so big groups of them come and rip the leaves out and make such a racket. You can hear them coming from a mile away because they are so loud Little buggers also scare our poor chickens and are terrorising a local magpie family that nests in the same tree. Great photos though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCresties Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 Thanks everyone Beautiful pictures, my fave is the snail, but I am a huge fan of snails in general. Yep, I'm a weirdo. Snail are cool, when I was a kid I used to collect garden snails to have as my pets So that's what those birds are called! They must be THE most annoying birds on the planet! Damn you carnabys! Mim, you should count yourself lucky to even see them in your garden "Once numerous, the charismatic and highly mobile Carnaby’s Black-Cockatoo is now classified by the Western Australian Government as ‘rare or likely to become extinct’ and by the Australian Government as Endangered. The last 50 years has seen a 50% decline in the population and their range has been reduced by up to one third." http://www.birdsaustralia.com.au/our-projects/carnabys-black-cockatoo-recovery.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
