Michelle Taylor-Holmes, Fairy Wren Antics (ANIMAL 2024)

This pair of Blue Back Fairy Wrens were captured whilst camping, I was able to get reasonable close with them flying off, as there was a large lump of reeds growing away from the edge of the dam. Their delightful antics of taking turns of de-lousing each other, having power naps and the general flitting off, stretching and shaking of themselves shows the quirkiness of these little birds.
