Grey Butcherbird Family
1 Comment »9th December, 2008; Category: Photography
I went out to the kitchen to fill up my waterbottle and saw a family of Great Butcherbirds on the clothes line out the back. The young bird was squawking away demanding food, while one of the adults sat on the corner of the clothes line, looking at our Lemon tree intently. Suddenly, the adult flew up, grabbed a bug off the tree and came back to the clothes line, where it proceeded to feed the bug to the young bird. Fortunately the camera was nearby and I was able to open up the kitchen window and take a few shots of them.
