Our friendly magpie was back today, foraging for worms and bugs in the backyard, with a new friend, a Pied Currawong.

They seemed to get along ok together.

Oh, pretty excited, the frogs decided I weren't a threat and called for me while I was filming!

Video is shaky (handheld while kneeling in a puddle) and the light flickers 'cause it was just a cheap LED torch, but I still got a call on video. ๐Ÿ˜€

Content warning: Snake - pretty, but venomous.


An observation from July 2021. A Pied Imperial Pigeon (Ducula bicolor) spotted at the Sungei Tengah area, Singapore. Last spotted one in March 2020, so good to see it again.

The Pied Imperial Pigeon is an uncommon resident bird.

Look at this glorious friend.

A Red-eyed Treefrog (Litoria Chloris). One of about 3 - 4 spotted in my backyard in the rain, calling away happily.

A Malaysian Pied-Fantail (Rhipidura javanica) spotted at Coney Island, Singapore, on 31 Oct 2021. It fanned its tail somewhat, but I haven't got it in full 'crazy' mode yet. ๐Ÿ™‚

In the local Malay language, its name is Murai-Gila Biasa, or Ordinary Crazy-Magpie.

Another new bird! A Great Bowerbird, spotted in Chillagoe. The male (with the pink crest) was displaying for three females in the hope of mating. He was ultimately unsuccessful on this attempt, but Iโ€™m sure he gave it another go after we left.

Not the best photos, since he was off the track and hidden in the undergrowth, but here is the Tooth-billed Bowerbird, which also only lives on and around the Atherton Tablelands. I have a sound recording of his call too, which I'll post when I can get it off the phone.
