Hi, finally figured out how to add my bit!
I live near Kyogle in the north east corner of NSW.
My yard was once a cow paddock and my mission is to restore at least some of the indigent flora, to attract anything that is native.
I'm already(five years)getting visits from a lot of different birds,some are regulars and some have actually come to nest.
Apart from being just beautiful they are an amazing alarm when snakes or goannas are about, so I get to see them too.
My biggest surprise was hearing a Barking Owl for the first time, I thoght it was someone being murdered during the night.

HI Vicky and welcome. I know all about the alarm calls from the local birds. You can't miss it can you?

Thank you birdie for your welcome, greatly appreciated.
Would you know how long young Kookaburras stay with their parents? I have a local mob of six who hang out together and seem to have done for a long time now. Vicky
