I had found a fresh new ‘Satin Bower Bird’s’ bower. [in the Cold Goast Hinterland]
Which I had come across quite by accident.
It was about two miles off the beaten track.
So I decided to build a hide out of bush materials.
I used mainly Camphor Laurel branches.
Took me about one hour to complete.
I was sitting trying to work out where SBB might approach from the next day.
When I heard a loud rustling from the bush beyond the Bower.
Instinct made me reach for my camera.
As soon as I saw movement I started snapping Pictures.
This is what I got on about the 5th Picture.
It was moving quite quickly through the undergrowth. : -((
