And the bush has friends to meet him, and their kindly voices greet him, In the murmur of the breezes and the river on its bars,
And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended, And at night the wonderous glory of the everlasting stars.

Banjo Paterson (1889)

Wandering Whistling-Ducks

It's so hot and humid here in Perth at the moment, probably due to another cyclone north of Perth. It reminds me a lot of the weather in Queensland, so I thought I'd put up a Queensland bird video.

During one of our recent birding holiday trips to north Queensland, my wife and I came across this nice little group of Wandering Whistling-Ducks at the golf course just north of Cairns. I took this short video of the little group of these beautiful ducks.
