We awoke today to a beautiful sunny morning. A number of roos, were milling around the home, grazing. Some of the young adolescent males seemed bored, bouncing around for a bit, whacking something with their paws, before looking for something else to do, annoy, or muck about with.....typical boys we thinks.
To our surprise, a pair of Eurasian Coots (Fulica atra) were paddling on the dam. This is our first sighting of this species on the property so it was a very special start to the day.

A little later in the morning, an Australian Kestrel (Falco chenchroides) landed on the driveway. A behaviour it has repeated almost daily over the last week or so. We don't understand why, but will continue to monitor.
