Bird Activity around Boronia this morning was amazing.
Just happened to look up to see them spiraling around in hundreds,
managed to get a few shots eventually after heading inside to grab camera only to find there was even more again but a little further away heading towards the hills.

I saw some birds doing that from here Shell, up near Dorset road Burwood Hwy area about 30 minutes ago. As long as they aren't vultures or they don't drop out of the sky as in some other countries.:sccary: all will be ok :).

Was driving to work this morning looking at that and thinking damn, I wish I had the camera. Glad someone captured it...and captured it well too! Well done.

Lovely, Shell, love the colours :)

How's the mozzie bands going? I had someone swear blind to me the other day that Listerine diluted in a spray bottle did the trick better than any Aeroguard (and smells nice too!). Might have to give it a try, wonder if the minty one works? :laughing:

Glad to say we don't have as many mozzies around now.
We have just got over the one sand fly I think we bought back from Lakes few weeks back.
I did take some Mozzie bands outside and used one on each leg of the hose and water addicted little tacker that hangs in my back yard, but havnt had to use them again.
Hasnt been any really nice sunrises to get me out before at sun up to test the bands out.

A great collection of pics. Love the green garden. I took mozzie bands to South America. Even tho we were protected against yellow fever and malaria, there's no protection against dengue fever.
