Spring has sprung

[gemfyre]

The air is filled with the sound of doves chatting each other up ("Cooo, croo" *bow, fan tail*, repeat). There are baby honeyeaters everywhere and yesterday I even saw babblers busy making baby babblers.

And the waders are arriving by the bucketload.

And I haven't heard noisy miner bird babies yet - I would know if there were babies out there, I'd be tracing them by chirps. Is Spring slower to come to Adelaide? I haven't heard ANY baby birds yet actually.. it's like mating season hasn't even begun in earnest here yet, like they're pairing up or something or I dunno what.
