I don’t know how common these birds are as I’ve only ever seen them at Lysterfield Lake Park. Usually in pairs or more they can be seen and heard gnawing on the trees and making noises to each other. You can usually hear them before seeing them. They are quite a large bird.

The Corella and the Cockatoo
Saw these two recently at a park caring for one another. Thought it really cute. In case you don’t know, the Cockatoo has the sulphur crest, the Corella has the blue eyes and pink mask. They are two different breeds.
Blue (male) Superb Fairy-Wren
And there were quite a few of these around the park too. They move extremely fast so it’s hard to get a good close clear shot of them. This one will have to do.
The nest is finished
Now content her nest is completed the second swan got onto her nest to settle down.
Nest building
There were two black swans at the park. One on her nest adding to it and the other in the water collecting reeds for her nest. Their nests were quite close to each other amongst the reeds at the lake.
