From my trip to the snow, I hope you all enjoy this amazing view and the birds we met there! Some snow magpies sing in the downtime, they were chasing the currawongs and ravens around.
Wow, what a place, on our to visit list thanks to this video. Are you able to film the currawong during roosting, I just wanted to hear if they make the same sound in that region as they do in the city.
My pleasure it's a wonderful spot I hope you enjoy as much as we did! Unfortunately was only there for a couple days but loved it! I'm keen to try find some when I'm on the mountain I see a lot of ravens in the car park at the snow. Also saw a crow for the first time ever there!
Yeah thanks! Indeed, usually I don't put much bread out at all, Was a little excited to see all the bird friends, often I just throw grapes for them to chase / catch it's a fun little game. I know the ravens like it they take it to the water and break it down, I'll grab some of that tomorrow have to go to the pet shop might help out as having fresh grapes always is a bit of a pain haha! :D I asked last time I was there but got a confusing answer as to which was the correct type I'll just buy a few fortified dog kibble and see what works!
@@rosssilver Yeah I get that 100%, sometimes you gotta use what's handy, haha, and I guess the occasional one-off slice of bread won't do any harm, it's most likely feeding bread to the same birds daily is what can cause them issues. I tried frozen blueberries the other day when the grapes were sold out and the currawong seemed to like them. Ravens like unsalted peanuts too and thin slices of apple, where Magpies went crazy for rolled oats and dried mealworms as snack. All three species enjoyed the dog kibble, but that also attracted the local possums feeding on leftovers during the evening.
@@gaiagaia4093 Yeah when I'm at home I usually give them things like dried fruit cut up they seem to like dried bananas and peanuts, the "pocky" dried fruit at pet shops also they love but also the lorikeets seem to love that too xD I've seen the lorikeets try eating the meatballs I give the ravens it's honestly a bit weird! They all seem to like Granola too particularly with dried fruit in it!
