At this time of the year, we often have uninvited visitors in our backyard and one of them are those yellow crested cockatoos. They like to eat the fruits of our pecan tree which is growing in our backyard for more than 15 yrs. 

The photos were taken one afternoon while I was in my garden when I noticed their noises.

One morning

 Last Wednesday morning when I went out to our backyard, this was the scene that captured my eyes. A small flock of  spotted dove perching on the aerial of our neighbor.

 It was cold on that morning and I think they were taking advantage of the early morning sun to warm them.

Too shy

 I should post this photo in Camera Critters meme but can't wait. This was taken yesterday when we  took a drive going to northwest of Sydney and on our way to a car park a kookaburra from nowhere suddenly flew in front of the car. It was good that the car was moving slowly as we approached an empty space in the car park, otherwise we hit the kookaburra. I kept an eye on him to where it would perch, which was on a branch of a small tree. I grabbed my camera and tried to capture a few photos but he was too shy  to face my camera and just let me took one photo before it flew away again into the woods. And here is the photo that I took, we cannot even see his eyes.

This butterfly is very common in our backyard. I saw this one on my citrus plant.

Butterflies are a breath of beauty fluttering by, they are mystery chronicled upon wing, they bring forth the grace and wonder of this world to our eyes everyday

Green planthopper

My first time to snap a citrus planthopper. I sometimes see one or two of them on my "kalamansi" plant . They are tiny that I always find it hard to take photos with the camera I have even though they let me get pretty close.  But this one really captured my attention because of the pink markings around its wing.

 The Willie Wagtail is the largest, and most well-known, of the Australian fantails. The plumage is black above with a white belly. The Willie Wagtail can be distinguished from other similar-sized black and white birds by its black throat and white eyebrows and whisker marks. The name wagtail stems from the constant sideways wagging of the tail. Young birds resemble the adults, but have paler, slightly rusty edges to the feathers of the wings.
