We didn't get the car back until 4pm so we're still in Horsham. The sun came out for a while so I had a chance to wander around the caravan park in search of birds.I don't know what the birds on the top right and left are so if any of my eastern states counterparts can help out I'd be very grateful.
Top centre - crimson rosella
Bottom left - red rumped parrots
Bottom centre - sparrow
Bottom right - wren (not sure which)
I was thrilled when some crimson rosellas flew in.
OK - brown thornbill on th left. The one on the right has a pardelote head so guessing maybe an immature one and the wren is a female fairy wren. Looks like you had a good day :)
Great news that you're back on the road. And what a good afternoon of bird spotting...I also thought the left hand one was a thornbill of some sort. The one on the right has the spots for a pardalote but I thought his tail was a little long and his colouring a little too muted and even for a pardalote. I wondered if he could be a yellow-rumped thornbill. I really liked the red rumped parrots!
@gilbertwood@robz Thanks for the ID. I wondered if they were thornbills. The bird on the top right had me puzzled because the markings looked similar to a pardalote but the birds were in small groups on the ground.
