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 »

Who is that calling so loudly, interrupting my reverie?  It's not a sound I hear often and never before so loud.  Yes, I'm definitely being called. 

But outside there's no one to be seen.   Hey, wait a sec, who's that calling me from behind the leaves in the bottlebrush?  Which is really strange because in all the years we've had this plant, no bird has ever visited it before, even though it is meant to be a bird-attractor.   read more »

Make friends with the birds that live around you, talk to them and discover their wonderful world

You don't have to go on a wild life safari in a remote jungle or trek through the Antarctica to discover the amazing life of the fellow creatures who share this world with us.

One of the most wonderful worlds exists all around you, right in your backyard, or local park, or suburban flat. 

Birds have an incredibly loving, extremely intelligent, complex and intricate social life. They care for their families, their communities, their inter-species network.  They are great communicators and love making friends.  Yet, we humans are so busy with our lives that we often don't notice the magical world we live in.

You too can enjoy the fascinating world of talking to the wild birds that live around your home.   read more »
