At last we received some rain just in time to keep some vegetation that was really suffering after trying to cope with extremely dry conditions following two years of above average rainfall.
The wildlife also appreciated the rain and more sightings as they make the most of the conditions.
Today we had a few seasonal visitors to the garden, first, Brush Cuckoos that have been busy calling to organise partners to breed and deposit the eggs in the nest of poor unwitting foster parents.
Second, a Black-faced Monarch one of the fly-catcher group.
Third, another cuckoo, a Shining Bronze Cuckoo that was very busy working over the vegetation for caterpillars, worms and small insects.
