The Pied Currawong is a very familiar bird of Eastern Australia. They can be seen in woodlands and forests but also suburban gardens. Their name is derived from their call which is often repeated several times. They can become quite aggressive, especially when competing with other species for garden scraps. In the bush, they are known for feeding on birds eggs and nestlings but also berries and fruit. Tim Siggs.ABVC. This bird Video is part of my channel started in 2015. My ambition is to showcase 500 Australian bird species. I am passionate about Bird Video as it Potentially shows bird behaviour, breeding and often bird song.
I began birdwatching when I was 12 and progressed to bird photography and then to bird Video for the past 15 years.
Originally from the UK, I find birding in Australia exciting and engaging. I have now travelled around Australia twice but mainly film birds in Queensland.
Many of the bird clips are taken from hides or blinds that I construct from bush materials, saving the need to carry a hide to a location.
Knowing bird calls and song is a big part of finding each species and naturally, knowing the habitat requirements helps also.
Enjoy.
