What a beautiful morning
Woke up to the willy wagtail's beautiful song at six am, soon joined by the fairy wrens and silver eyes nestin near the house. Got up and headed for the birds, jacaranda and plumhead singing away, then just as I was finishing up I heard a faint whistle and saw the tri nun male singing and hopping, finally confirming I have a pair!! The other one just say looking bemused. Interestingly this tri nun has a very different song from my last one, this one is very quiet an almost canary like, whereas my last one was anything but quiet!!
Things are starting to return to normal

So glad for you Jay - but you're a teenager, go back to bed for at least another 9 hours .

Shhhhh Natamambo...maybe he's one of that rare breed that wakes up BEFORE noon!!!!

Glad you're having a great day Jayburd!

I want one of those "singing Jacarandas" I didn't know they existed, mine just flowers!

6 am on school holidays ... male ... teenager I want one of that model

Yes some days you just wouldnt be dead for quids Jay . You wouldnt by any chance be smitten by a female teenage type person would you


My morning started out much the same . Woke at 7 am , made other halfs b/fast and lunch for work , fed the hand reared Lorikeet , opened the back door to the abrasive sounds of the Corella and the screams of Quarrions ....shut the door and went back to bed .

iPod autocorrect for the win, tintola! Jacarinis
I haven't slept after seven thirty am since the flight home on the first, I imagine in time that will go back to usual but for now I enjoy getting up with the birds.
Deb, no not yet. Well, sorta XP but that has nothing to do with this
XD that sounds like me most other mornings those magpie larks hanging around our place are SO LOUD!!!!!

Have had a great day went to work to be greeted by displaying diamond firetails (of which I have a great video), and baby cockatiels, redrumps and a whole mob of over-affectionate little lorikeets that although cute are a bit like a screaming, sharp-beaked cute-as-hell blurry green and red swarm of miniature death! They like to pretend to be earrings and dangle there from their beaks. Came home and cake for my father's birthday

Got up birds asleep went to work got hot came home Yea boring I know

Sunday ... 7am ...woke up to Milly trying to put her pink dumbbell chewtoy in one of my orifices followed by kisses that stunk like dead maggots . Bfast /lunch blah blah Corella barking , Quarrions screaming same old same old shut door and back to bed .

I see a pattern here

Been up at 6:30 every morning these holidays. Could be that the sun comes up super early Which makes my room so bright or that im just used to waking up at that time from school......

Glad to hear you sounding so chirpy Jay! Tell us more about the female teenage type!
As for sleeping in, been up at the crack of dawn for the last 5 years. The biggest sleep in we have was 8 or 9am ONCE! Roll on the teenage years when he sleeps in and so can we....
