17.01.2022 ‘Maggie’! The Malleefowl . One of the 4 NEW original artworks available on my website from 9am THIS SATURDAY as part of Handmade Canberra Virtual Christmas Mark...et. $200 from the sale of this artwork will be going to Yongergnow Australian Malleefowl Centre & Café to assist with much needed funds to ensure this birds future. . Malleefowl have been described as one of the world’s hardest working birds, spending up to 300 days a year digging and maintaining their nest mound with their large and powerful feet. Nest mounds can reach dimensions of over 1 metre high and 4 metres wide! The MALE (yes you read that correctly) works almost all day and night, regulating the temperature for the eggs. #dadgoals The species is listed as Critically Endangered in the Northern Territory, Endangered in New South Wales and Victoria, Vulnerable in South Australia, and as Fauna That Is Rare Or Is Likely To Become Extinct in Western Australia. . . . #malleefowl #originalart #birdart #artforacause #criticallyendangered #birdlifeaustralia #australianbirds #shannondwyerartist See more

17.01.2022 I’M GOANNA BURY YOU IF YOU COME NEAR MY BABIES Leigh Warneminde was fascinated to witness an Australian brushturkey digging up dirt on a lace monitor in her... backyard at Yaroomba on the Sunshine Coast. The lizards are well known for raiding eggs from brushturkey mounds and this protective male bird was doing its best to deter it. Leigh has spotted goannas in her beachside garden, on her roof and duelling with a brush turkey on the sand dunes while she has been weeding with the Coolum & North Shore Coast Care group. Male Australian brushturkeys create mounds of dirt and leaves to incubate eggs laid by numerous female birds. The chicks fend for themselves when they hatch. https://ab.co/2LKrxH6 Thanks for sharing Leigh. : Leigh Warneminde
