While living on the
second floor has its disadvantages - things have to be carried up the
stairs often- it also has its advantages. Our living room window is
right at tree level so we get to watch the endless bird dramas and
interactions that unfold. In Canberra the most common kind of bird to
see are parrots which have really been brightening up our winter
living. There is something very soothing about sitting on the couch
reading a book to little kids with a crew of vibrant chattering parrots
listening in.
Aurora was given binoculars and a Australian
bird app for her birthday. While she does bring them along on hikes
they have proven very useful in the house too. She can sit in the warm
cozy house spying on birds, looking closely at their features so she can
identify them. If only we had been spendy enough to buy a better lens
for our camera!
Great that Aurora is using the app! She was a keen birder when we were there in the spring.
ReplyDeleteYup she really likes it and I am learning too. We saw/heard a lyrebird and she remembered it from when you showed it to her.
