Baby Willie Wagtails come out to feed
Baby Willie Wagtails just out of their nest
I never did find where our resident pair of Willie Wagtails were nesting recently. Yesterday, however, I found the three lovely babies huddled together on a fence post. They looked as if they were just out of the comfort of their nest.

Of course – the parents didn’t like me getting too close and so I received a severe telling off as I was taking their photo.
Next time I probably should get the parents to sign a model release form – then they might be happier.

Lovely pictures. Such cute little guys!
Those shots are awesome!
Somehow those birdies have an angry face expression 😀
So very cute! As usual, another great set of photos!
Great photos and story. Our resident Willie Wagtails failed to successfully raise chicks during the Adelaide heatwave last month. I dont know whether they will attempt again.
Lovely shots trevor!
Thanks for your kinds words everyone.
Nicole – the appearance of the “angry face” comes from the line of white feathers above the eye. Gives them quite a fierce look.
