Home Gardener edit

It is sometimes said, with at least some justice, that the home gardener can have either currawongs or small birds, but not both... Well I can attest to the falsity of this statement. At our place we get currawongs, lorries, cockies, galahs and even the odd bush turkey feeding around the same tree simultaneously. Of course it helps to put both wild-bird seed and mealworms out for them, as suggested by the remainder of the statement. --Jquarry 05:38, 20 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Um, none of the others you mentioned are small birds. Generally poeple mean things like fairy wrens, thornbills, robins, gerygones etc. Sorry, Cas Liber 08:19, 20 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Home Gardener edit

I tend to agree with the poster of == Home Gardener == above. We own a property (aptly named CURRAWONG ) in Toolern Vale, Victoria, Australia. The property attracts many, varied birds. Without knowing the names of such birds, I can attest to many of them being decidedly small (eg ones the size of robins that have blue plumage on the chest, or others having orange plumage on the chest). Saying that, the majority of birdlife are of larger sizes eg. currawongs, magpies, a "dove" like bird, and cockatoos. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Audifred (talkcontribs) 03:13, 27 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

  • edit* My partner has advised me that she knows the names of some of the birdlife:

"we have willy wag tails, Rosellas, Galahs, Ravens" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Audifred (talkcontribs) 03:30, 27 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
