@SamSantala Some Australian ones I love - Sydney Long's elegant art nouveau mythology and Hans Heysen's beautiful gum trees.
Goodbye to the Glossy Black Cockatoo from #BirdoftheYear. Seeing these guys munching on casuarinas in the wild was one of the most special experiences last year and I fear it will become so much more rare in the future.
The day has come for the ibis to be knocked out of #BirdoftheYear but in a way I'm glad because these beautiful trash guardians are too powerful and the other birds deserve a chance.
Another beloved bird out of the running in #BirdoftheYear. Pied Currawongs are the witches, they prowl and watch with their clever yellow eyes and haunt the air with their calls. Big, dark, beautiful friends.
