Satin Bower Birds at Middle Path
Male Satin Bower Bird ~ Ptilonorhynchus violaceus |

A male Satin Bower bird in a moment of pause - the photo does no justice to the rich irridescent hue of his feathers when the sun strikes them. |
The female of the species - blessed with bright blue eyes and looking nothing like the male, these birds are "blessed" with one of the most unmusical raucous screeches we hear at Middle Path. |

And here's where the action takes place - the bower liberally strewn-around with neighbours pegs, milk bottle tops and other blue items. |
