I think these birds are so cool (and not just because they're plentiful around here)! They nest in soil embankments, which we have lots of on our property. We're in the process of building a house, and a group of them quickly made a nesting hole in the ground, in a hole that was dug for a concrete pier! Crazy birds. Just thought I'd share some photos of these little guys, since most people outside of Australia wouldn't have ever had a chance to see them!

Lots more photos here:
