Tiny Thornbills

[Kobione]

We have recently changed the brand of bird seed we are putting out in the feeding area, and, since we have done so we are now getting Thornbills coming in. They are very tiny, and we have not seen them so close to the house before. Caught these two yesterday and guessed one was a baby, because it didn't seem to know what it was doing, and next thing the parent stuffed seed down its throat. A nice catch, and nice to see them. You will get an idea of the size by the seed cases around them:

PS: not perfect, taken through a dirty glass door window.

A pair of you best bird-shots to date Dee, especially the second one.

Agree with FUJI.

Great shots...

Thanks Fuji, Kev & Rye - they are very active and always on the move, so the second was a very lucky catch.

Nice shots, Dee. I put seed out and they all ignore it! Very disappointing.
