monkeysarefun Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) Warmer weather here brings out the snakes. 6ft Eastern Brown ("worlds second deadliest snake!..") in the backyard on Sunday. Eastern Browns have anger management issues so I used the digital zoom to get these, hence a bit pixelly. Dont know how I managed to lose it before the snake guy got here, but I did!

monkeysarefun Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Some wattlebirds were going nuts in one of my gum trees yesterday, screaming and dive bombing something amongst the branches. Other birds came to join in - magpies, a peewee, some more wattlebirds. Finally managed to spot what it was - a Lace Monitor (lizard) climbing the tree. Think kind of goanna that can grow to 2 metres. This one was not that big, maybe a bit over 1.2 metres, but still unexpected in my backyard. He was lightning fast and this was the only unblurry shot I managed of him and even then its only his tail and bum sorry about that. The weird thing was that after a couple of minutes of the other birds ineffectively dive bombing it, out of nowhere a pair of cockatoos streamed in, zeroed in on the lizard and set about screeching at it and flapping their wings. After about 10 seconds of this I guess the lizard either fell out the tree or ran down the other side of it because I lost sight of it and all the birds calmed back down and went back to doing their normal bird stuff. I dont know how the cockies knew the lizard was there, they just arrived from wherever fully intent on attacking it. - its like the other birds called in close air support like in those movies when the pinned down infantry call in the Apache helicopters.

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted November 3, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 3, 2021 No doubt the birds had nests nearby and lizards are rather partial to eggs. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Phil Bullock Posted November 7, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 7, 2021 If you follow the Abbotswood and Norton Junction thread you will know I have to build on the front drive. Every time I go out there the local greater spotted woodpecker starts a right racket shouting at me. Thinks he has sole wood peckering rights! 2 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
