We've been enjoying our time immensely in Congo, New South Wales. It's a small place, but the wildlife certainly makes up for it!
The first visitors of the day were a couple of female superb fairy-wrens. They flitted about on the ground cover, and we couldn't help but notice the way they held their tails upright, almost perpendicular to their bodies. Rather comical, really.
Later, a male fairy-wren appeared, sporting his vibrant breeding plumage. The striking blue stood out vividly against the drab background. He seemed quite preoccupied searching for food.
We then took a leisurely stroll along one of the area's many walking tracks. The bushland is quite dense, which made for a refreshing change after some of the more open landscapes we've seen on this trip.
As we walked, we came across a pair of kangaroos just off the side of the road. They seemed completely unconcerned by our presence and continued grazing as though we weren't even there. We always get a kick out of seeing the local wildlife. We suppose they are used to tourists.
