walking tours

The birds love us visiting their patch to look at their nests and catch a glimpse of their chicks.  Most of the time, their nests are too high up in the trees for us to get a look inside.  But once the babes are bigger and peer over the edge, we can introduce ourselves.  Sometimes the chicks even call us and stand up to show themselves.  Maggie and Vicky have always proudly shown us their nests and babes.  Larry and Harrie, the grey butcherbirds too. 

How do bird families behave?  Do they remember each other after they leave home? What happens to the young juveniles as they wander through alien territories looking for a new home?  Do the birds help each other?  Do birds from different species help each other? Maggie and his community have shown us much about bird culture.  Here we share the insights we have gained about their social life. 

A sneak peek at other creatures sharing the bush with Maggie.

The birds interact with other animals as well. They form friendships with some, while being on a constant watch for others.
