Here are a few more photos of the Splendid Fairy-Wrens I photographed in Pemberton earlier this year. In the top photo, the two birds on the left (females) were both vying for the attention of the male, both trying to get as close to him as possible, and constantly pushing each other out of the way. It was quite entertaining to watch!

I'm pretty sure I saw that first photo on a magazine cover :)
