What do you do on a cold mountain morning? Warm up in the sun!
A handsome Square-tailed Kite Lophoictinia isura was perched in a sunny spot this morning soaking up the winter sun.
It is always special to when we see special wildlife at our Fox Gully Bushcare site.

Look out for the amazing new sculpture at the Shire Road entry to the Reserve. Featuring our local native flora and fauna the totem pole shows off the special residents who call the Reserve home.
This morning artist Jamie Maclean was putting finishing touches adding colour to our special addition welcoming visitors.
Thanks to Councillor Krista Adams who commissioned the sculpture through the Lord Mayors Suburban Enhancement Fund.

Hey mate,
Love the blog. That’s actually a Square-tailed Kite! They had a nest on the mountain a couple of years ago. Keep up the good work 🙂
