Blue Wren not so blue

With the breeding season over and now with expanded familys, our fairy wrens are very active around the garden feeding on insects and nectar building reserves for winter. The males have lost their beautiful breeding plumage and are now a good match for the females with only small variations in colour. A family group were very busy in one of our grevilleas and gave me the opportunity for a couple of family shots.
