Australian Brush-Turkey - Alectura lathami

The Australian Brush-turkey can sometimes damage gardens when raking up the ground looking for food. Their chicks hatch fully feathered and can fly within a few hours.
The Australian Brush-turkey has mainly blackish plumage with pale scalloping on its underparts, a bare red head, yellow throat wattle (mauve in Cape York Peninsula birds) and laterally flattened tail. It has large, strong feet.
At 70 cm in length, and weighing around 2.3kg, it is the largest of Australia’s three megapodes (mound-building birds).
The Australian Brush-turkey is not easily confused with any other Australian bird. The Australian Brush-turkey is a large, ground-dwelling bird with black-brown plumage, a bald, red head and a yellow neck pouch (or wattle). (Text Source: BirdLife Australia)

My passion is wildlife photography, and I hope I can bring the beauty of nature into your home and show how amazing nature is. Every single animal needs our protection, as they all play an important part in our survival. There is an abundance of scientific reports telling us that the rate of extinction is alarming. More and more fauna and flora are going to disappear. With my wildlife photography, I hope to showcase a fraction of animals before they are gone. Only what you know, you will love and protect…

Gasteruptiid Wasps - Gasteruptiidae spp

The propleura form an elongated "neck", the petiole is attached very high on the propodeum, and the hind tibiae are swollen and club-like. The females commonly have a long ovipositor (except in the genus Pseudofoenus), and lay eggs in the nests of solitary bees and wasps, where their larvae prey upon the host eggs, larvae and provisions.
The absence of "teeth" on the crown of the head and the somewhat thickened antennae readily separate these wasps from those in the unrelated family Stephanidae, which also contains very slender wasps with long necks. (Text Source: iNaturalist)
My passion is wildlife photography and every day I will showcase one animal in my feed. I hope I can bring the beauty of nature into your home and show how amazing nature is.
Every single animal needs our protection, as they all play an important part in our survival.
Unfortunately, humans have wiped out on average 60% of mammals, birds, fish and reptiles since 1970 a recent study finds. With my wildlife photo a day, I hope to showcase a fraction of them before they are gone…

Figbird - Sphecotheres viridis

Figbirds are part of a worldwide family that includes the orioles, of which Australia has two other members (the Yellow and Olive-backed Orioles). Figbirds have a blackish bill, which easily distinguishes the species from the similar Olive-backed Oriole, which has a reddish bill. Both of the Australian orioles also lack the Figbird’s bare-eye skin and have red eyes (adults). The Figbird tends to be more gregarious than either of the orioles, living semi-colonially. The Figbird nests in small, semi-colonial groups, with nests often quite close together.

Male Australasian Figbirds have bare, red skin around a dark eye, contrasting against a black crown and grey neck and throat. The remainder of the body is olive-green, except for a white under-tail area. Females have grey skin around the eye and lack distinctive head markings. They are brown-green above and dull-white below, streaked with brown. Both sexes have a blackish bill. There are two distinct colour forms of the males of this species. Males north of Proserpine in Queensland have a yellow front. (Text Source: BirdLife Australia)
