Today i saw the most amazing thing. A baby Leather Head had fallen into the storm water drain in front of our house. I just couldn't believe the Mother was going down to the baby & feeding it all day. The kids next door got the baby for me & i put it up into our Weeping Tea Tree with the rest of the family Dad & 2 other siblings. The babies were just fledglings so they were only still small compared to the parents.
Robyn.

They are ugly poor things, but their ugliness makes them a real beauty. We have quite a few of them here - and noisy they are!

Oh the Noisy Friabirds - defiantly not my favorite bird in the world!
