 Skippy loves scampering through our yard and adjacent bush, hopping through the rose bushes and jumping over the fence in an easy leap.  But he stopped short, stood on his tip-toes and breathed in slowly.... unable to resist the beautiful fragrance wafting towards him, he swooned in delight as he whiffed each rose in turn.  Even a wallaby knows how to appreciate the beauty of nature and the power of aroma-therapy.

No , not quite.   An almost legless lizard dropped in front of our  feet one night. 

At first we thought he had no legs and was perhaps a baby snake.

A closer looked under better light and much greater magnification revealed  fully formed but the minutest legs. Interestingly we had never seen this species before.  Gekkos have been around for ages.  read more »

Monty magpie and Loki lorikeet know each other quite well.  They share the gum trees in the bush.  Keep any eye out for predators in the valley and when all is well, they catch up on all the neighbourhood gossip while larking out on the mulberry tree.

Before long, Lori decided it was time to inspect Monty's favourite spa and thirst quencher.  A surprised Monty decided to let go of his initial territorial instincts and join his friend instead.

A fairy wren accidentally entered my friend Sue' s office one busy afternoon.  Sue was flat out answering phone calls, when she noticed the bird agitatedly trying to escape.  The phones kept ringing and Sue wasn't getting the chance to open the windows and pull the screen frame off to let the bird out.  Meanwhile, the bird was getting even more desperate in her attempt to find a path and was endangering herself as she flew about the room and pushed herself against the glass windows.  read more »
