Hello from Batchelor NT

My name is Darryl andI have recently joined Birds in Backyards.

I live in Batchelor in the NT, our garden is in the town on a largish block of around 2000sqm Batchelor is on the divide between the Finnis and Adelaide River catchments and is surrounded by Tropical/Monsoonal Woodland. Batchelor is  approximately 100 road kilometres from Darwin and on road to Litchfield National Park.

My partner Graeme and I are both pensioners so we spend our time doing gardening and community work of various kinds. We live on our back deck and sit watching many birds come to a bird bath we have located just near the deck and under a canopy of shrubs and trees to provide shelter from the raptors that frequent the area. We have a large fish pond near our front deck which is sometimes the scene of fishing by kingfishers including Azure Kingfishers and 
Bluewing Kookaburras.

Enough for now.
