Description

Pied Currawongs are visiting my backyard at the moment, to feed on berries (Brazilian Peppertree, and Chinese Elm), and utilise the birdbath to help regurgitate the seeds (#4 photo shows a 2cm regurgitated pellet. It looked solid but broke apart when I tried to remove it from the birdbath).

I also observed one banging seeds on my neighbours’ roof. These are likely to be the larger seeds from a native Cheese tree.

House Wren (Troglodytes aedon)

Date

July 2021

Description

Our neighbor's cat killed this Passeriform and brought it into our house to play with or to gift. The bird had a bloody raw spot near the neck.

The top and bottom of its tail are shown in images 2, 3 and 4. The feet are shown in images 5 and 6. The wound and blood are shown in image 7.
The front and back of the wing are shown in images 9 and 10.
Some scat/droppings were around the butt which fell out, shown in image 13.

I buried the dead bird in our compost bin to keep it away from the cat, who was chasing me down asking for her gift back.

As always, I tried to create good from the sad situation by providing as many photo angles as possible. Hopefully these will be useful to someone.

Spotted at Caspers wilderness Park on 7/4/21 on a mountain bike ride. The coyote was standing at attention and I was photographing it when the badger crossed interview and the coyote moved off. Presumably this was a symbiotic feeding behavior
