Trail Camera 15 - 21 May 2020

I changed the position of the camera this week and it wasn't successful. Although it caught lots of  Kangaroo and Wallaby action the sensors triggered only once for the birds.  So this blog entry is about behaviour rather than sitings.

'Allo 'allo, wot's this then?

Mum again, to give some idea of the size difference

Now you see me, now you don't!

Here they are again

Mum, I think is pretty old. Of the 5 kanga mum's that took up residence and raised their joeys in the garden during the drought and bushfires, she is the last still spending time in the garden. When they moved into the garden they were both fairly skinny and didn't have a lot of energy to spare hopping away from either L or me when we went outside. Consequently they quickly learn't we were no threat and it wasn't long before we were detouring round them instead of them avoiding us.

 Interestingly I still see her allowing him to nurse occasionally whereas during December and January we watched as many other mothers were weaning and/or leaving joeys less than half his size.

What is L doing in the shed?

And lastly the only bird footage the trail cam captured during this period:
Lewin's Honeyeater, Wonga Pigeon, then a New Holland Honeyeater arrives followed by a White Naped Honeyeater.
