They are very territorial when they are nesting and very protective of their babies. They have a bad rep because of their swooping but it's only to protect their chicks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobj Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 My first sighting of a dugong...Ball Bay is a gazetted dugong sanctuary, but a certain "pro fisherman" used to set his nets in the bay and drag the nets which scraped the seagrass away. Consequently, no one has seen any in the bay for many years. It headed out towards Brampton Island. Did you notice in the photos, the cyclonic conditions we are experiencing from cyclone 'Owen'??

Bobj Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 A white breasted sea eagle swooping in on a fish frame. Only just managed to 'capture' it as I was heading home and turned just in time to see it circle the frame. Cheers, Bobj. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramot Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Some idiots put this shark in the lake next to us at midnight about 3 months ago. Both the police and council were informed, but apparently it’s not a crime to throw a fish/shark into a land locked lake!! It is a salt water tidal lake, but controlled by a weir at one end. A council worker did walk round the lake once but didn’t see the shark so took no action!! It was a good 5ft and was finally caught a few days ago and released back into the river. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose the colder days are gone now so the slightly warmer weather will bring them out. Blimey it looks just like a stick. So easy to step on. I still can't see your echidna.

Bulya Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Spent several hours at Jerrabomberra Wetlands yesterday. What a magic setup and a must to visit in the ACT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobj Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Just after first light, an osprey visited me, landing on the rocks 20 metres away, looking for a 'handout'. Caught a mackerel and put the frame on the rock hoping the osprey would return. Never saw it but later, as I was leaving, noticed a brahminy kite perched in a tree. No idea if either bird got a feed, as I couldn't see through the bush. Cheers, Bobj. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammygirl Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Heard some noises in the roof space and went to investigate. Now I know why those rosellas were hanging out on the gutter! We will wait till they have fledged then block up the gap. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
