Little Wattlebird Anthochaera chrysoptera
This bird was very active and gymnastic, bouncing from tree
to tree looking for food. I found him at the Franklin riverside walk, along
with a couple of others in this calendar. He wasn’t too concerned about me,
presumably having correctly assessed my chances of climbing the tree he was in.
They have a red-brown patch under their wings. I like these birds, they’re sort
of cheeky. I like to think he’d say “Thanks mate, got me looking all
undignified. And then put it in the calendar. Champion!”
