Aussie Finch Forum

A couple of years ago I came upon a nesting pair on an island on the Severn River.
Kayaked out and managed to get a couple of photos...

We all wish we had more zoom sometimes
nice shot, would love to see plumheads live!

We do get Painteds and Stars where I work but havent seen any yet

We have them wild at Devils Bend , trouble is they look like small sparrows till you get close enough and then they fly away ..
Nice photo and thanks for sharing

On this form, as in the photo can only dream of. It's very interesting. Thank you.

Thanks guys.

We have them wild at Devils Bend

...where is that exactly?

Which Severn River did you see them, NSW or QLD?

I saw some recently flocking with zebras at Bylong, NSW. There was also diamond firetails and double bars within a couple of kilometres.

Severn River northern NSW... upstream of the Pindari Dam.
I also saw Diamonds, Zebs and Double bars on that trip. Beautiful area. Murray Cod are also abundant ;)
