That birdbath looks popular. We have had one at our place in Perth for years. As dry as the climate is here, the birds don’t seem to need it. I have changed its position around the garden many times but never get any customers.

Drought conditions in South Gippsland probably adds to its attractiveness. Despite my water tanks being down to about a quarter full, I still give it a scrub and change the water on a daily basis.
Apparently a dripper or fountain can increase visitors as ripples in the water attract their eye.

When the Victorian Ravens take over mine, the other species have to wait their turn.And refills necessary.
For whatever reason, the cockatoos and Little Corellas have just done flyovers this autumn. the nuts must be more prolific elsewhere.

Really beautiful photos. I’ve probably asked you this before …what camera does she use?
I imagine some of the shots are at quite a distance, yet still crisp and detailed.

She uses a Nikon Coolpix P950, which she calls “A camera for dummies”. She tends to leave it on the preset birder setting.
