Just had a short but savage thunderstorm in Melbourne on a 30 deg day and my five usually langourous Gouldian’s suddenly sparked up and in activity terms they out zebbied the zebs. Perhaps a genetic memory of the northern wet season?

Mmm.....interesting mate, as many state that it's the start of the wet season that seems to trigger off many Australian finches

I suppose if yer get much more rain and short storms etc yer might hopefully get some encouragement from yer birds to wanna start breeding unless they already are

Be lucky

Fingers crossed for you having a bumper breeding season after this.
