Sunset tonight

Wed, 19 Jun 2013 10:55:16 +0000

by: Amson

Description}: One of the best sunsets we have seen in a while. I saw the clouds forming high early in the afternoon so planned to head to the coast but got caught in peak hour traffic and it took me nearly an hour to get to this wharf. Arrived just 10 minutes before sunset but well worth the effort anyway. So so beautiful. Hope your sunsets tonight are as good!

Eastern Koels

Sun, 11 Nov 2012 05:23:42 +0000

by: Amson

Description}: Each spring these birds migrate to our part of the world to breed. I love their distinctive calls and wait hoping they will find mates. The males (black) are more easily seen and call well into the night. This year again our Mulberry Tree provided a transit home for one couple who spent a few days together. The females do not build nests but lay their eggs in nests of other birds to be raised. Nature is so amazing! Journalling: I know it is spring when the sound of the first male Koel is heard calling for a mate. You have returned again to our part of the world to breed. Then others join you and your calls cry out well into the night. I love your distinctive voice and worry as your calls become more urgent and hope that there are enough migrating females. This year again our Mulberry Tree provided a brief transit point for you and your mate. I would love to know in which nest the egg was laid. And as I sit here now another male calls. Our tree holds enough fruit to satisfy you too. I am waiting with my camera for more photos.
