Warwick,QueenslandBirds flocked to Warwick for the annual Jumpers and Jazz in July Festival.Flamingos sunbathed in the Yarntopians gardenand played funky music in the Art Gallery.
Other birds gathered at the yarn bombed trees on Palmerin Street.
These Australian magpies, usually intent in nesting season on swooping at pedestrians, seemed oblivious to any spectators. And this ibis lived up to his reputation by foraging in the rubbish bin. Ibis are not known as “bin chickens” for nothing!

One of my friends made a flamingo and I know she found it tricky in parts. I love their long legs and knotted knees.
