Medley of Country Scenes

a little 'old-timer'
at Sandy Hollow, inland, N.S.W
somewhere, near to Mudgee




..this was 'the shed' but unfortunately the house nearby was hidden by trees



Kestrel Country - Wollemi National Park

no idea what; any clues?

  5. I knew when I saw the title there were going to be more gorgeous scenery shots! I was right. Beautiful country! I don't know what that bird is, but I love that photo.

  6. Great photos, Carole. I love the old buildings and the tree reflections under the bridge.
    I like the black and white ruffed Lemurs in the previous post too.

  8. Carole, these are beautiful photos of a beautiful place. I can hardly imagine scenery more different from the walk in the rice fields I posted a few days ago! :-)

  9. The place looks wonderful! The house amid the grassland, surrounded by tress is perfect countryside residing! The pebble stream is inviting :)

  19. Perhaps a form of Gerygone? I will work on it. The tail has me stumped a bit, together with the rest.

  20. Pale-yellow Robin ... ah but says it seldom leaves dense cover. Drats.

    A Yellow Thonrnbill doesn't have the eye-patch nor the wedged-tail.

    Consider a Jacky Wynter ... not the eye-ring though.

thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
