Our European settlers have much to answer for, calling a bird by a name which reminds them of “home”. Thankfully we have Currawongs even though some people still confuse them with Magpies, which in turn are not the same as the European Magpie. Phew… We love the Currawong name…

A familiar sight around our house, although suffering a bit from the seeming epidemic of Sulphur Crested Cockatoos. Linda has the bird “giving us the eye” like they do!.

We’ve had a bit of rain lately, so there hasn’t been much incentive for local birds to come over and use the ‘bath… Cockatoos are always present, though, and Currawongs would like to get a look-in occasionally!
