But being here in Australia makes me think that we have practically no bird-song near our San Francisco Bay Area home. We take a bush walk near Crackneck (nr. Terrigal) and we see and hear lots and lots of different and colorful birds. Wattle birds; Kookaburras; Whip Birds (“wheee—IP” song and very pleasant to listen to); Lorikeets (smaller but just as colorful parrot looking bird); Parakeets; Galahs (pink, grey and white); Currawongs (looks like a Magpie but isn’t); wild Budgerigars; crested Cockatoos; and Corellas. Photos are the local Pelicans.
