LYREBIRD CHICK
This is me from aaaaages ago, helping to band a lyrebird chick at one of our study sites with the local lyrebird survey group. The chicks are quite big and completely fluffy - kinda like bantam chickens, but with huge feet and claws. Completely adorable, that's for sure. This day was one of the highlights of my recent honours endeavours. For anyone who is interested, please check out the website of really good wildlife pics taken by a yr 11 student, Alex Maisey, who is crucial in maintaining the facts, figures and info on all the lyrebirds near Belgrave. He really knows all the facts about every bird there - I'm in awe. And his photos are pretty cool.
SPIEGELTENT GIGS
The Spiegeltent is well underway and our group, Brat Pack, is performing on the following dates - Oct 28th, Nov 11th and I think Nov 18th (will confirm shortly). Gigs are from 3-5pm, really cheap (about $10 I think) and will include social dancing, lesson and performance. They are on each Saturday but different groups will be performing on different Saturdays. I'll also be there on Dec 2nd for a St Kilda performance. check out the swing patrol link to the left, or the spiegeltent's official website for program details.
BRAT PACK SHENANIGANS
These pics are of a party we had at Brat Pack rehearsal last week - was good to mess around for an hour, playing kids party games, skipping, wheelbarrow races, etc... we did do some dancing practice but mainly messed about for awhile and ate chips, lollies and fairy bread.
