It's a Caspian Tern, Simon - not that anyone can tell. That's TWO Golden Orb Weavers; 6.15am the place was teaming with wildlife in my ten minute window of no rain. Not. ;)

I can see Spot the Bird, that's a nice name.

I'm surprised those eyes can see anything Harry Blown. That's a Caspian Tern, the largest tern in the world which is why you can probably see it!

harry blown said...

Oh. Who's Tern is it?

It's my turn Harry Blown, but yours next ;)

simon said...

I have ridden my MTN bike right into a golden orb weavers web- NOT NICE! Not nice at all.....

Too far away to tell Simon! Heehee. Ooooh errrrr, a nasty orb daily respins its web between the bottlebrush where I pick Jack's breakfast! I'm never quite awake enough to remember it's there ...

COOL spider! WOW! :-D

The bird looks big in spite of its smallness.

Yes, you can tell the Tern isn't small, just far away Mary Stebbins Taitt :)

Plenty of space in the Botanic Gardens to spin webs! Hhehee, you must be wearing glasses or have magnified your screen to see the Tern Kyles ;)
