Jungle Chickens! The Orange-footed Scrubfowl Call #birdcall wet tropics
Such important points! Bring on the bugs! Lovely plants and insects alike! 🦋💚🐝🐞🪲
When I played this video, all my cats got around me very intrigued and excited by the bird call. 😅
Fabulous video :) We need to look after our insects, especially with so much land clearing happening. Do you root the pentas in water or straight in potting mix? Thanks, Fiona
@nolongerdreaming7443 Thank you! The Pentas are super easy. Just cut and root in water. They take a couple of weeks to produce roots and then plant out. They grow really fast once they settle in. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
@@woodwidewebeducation Thanks so much! I am planting lots for butterflies at the moment, so it was good timing :)
@@nolongerdreaming7443 awesome! Hope the Pentas bring you lots of butterflies! 😄
While I was in my bed nearly falling asleep there was a Curlew making that sound in the middle of the night, and it scared me to death.
I remember a school camp where they were right outside the tents! Super creepy! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Sticky Woody 🙂
👍😄
@@woodwidewebeducation 🙂
Protect your stick insect at all costs mine just got eaten by a spider 🥺😨😢😢😢
Oh yes you gotta love doing the green ant dance when you accidentally bump into one of their nests.
🤣 I do that dance far too often! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Thank you, I loved finding this, I discovered a rolling swarm myself this weekend and started researching the internet The escalator explanation makes a lot of sense because they sure do move slowly witthout the speed upgrade. The bunch I found were signalling to one another about when to stop and start. You provided a wonderful explanation. Thanks
Oh what a lovely comment! Thanks so much. They are fascinating little critters aren't they!? Let me know if there's anything else that you'd like me to cover.
mantap👍
Terima kasih
yes i was on camp in norther territory kakadu and we were camping in tents and i heard this in the middle of the night and i thought a girl fell into the billabong and got eaten by a crocodile this sound scares me now
Certainly not a reassuring introduction to their eerie calls! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment :)
excellent work! I will be trying this as soon as I can find one!!
Glad it was useful! Let me know how it goes 🙂 Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Used to have these in s/w sydney 40y ago....to many houses now😢
Oh that's so sad 😞 Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment
Ahhhh! Need this for keeping cool. It's 30 degrees outside today.
I hope it helped! It's a bit cold here at the moment but this is where we go when it's hot :)
There is a bird called "Bush Stone Curlew" that literally sounds like kids screaming/crying. It just might be that.
True
Wow amazing Transformation. Great documentation. Many thanks, Your new subscriber ❤
@Hermanns.Tortoise.Island Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it ❤️😀
Hello, how come you don't mention the Curlew
Which Curlew in particular?
@woodwidewebeducation Bush stone curlew. Coke to think of it, it's a 50/50. It does have a human like scream...kind of
Never mind, I commented on the wrong video 🙃
Thanks for sharing!
I hope it was useful! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Gr8 content and concise. ❤
Thank you so much! Glad the video was useful!
How beautiful!
It was such a magical experience! ❤️
I have a boy and girl that come to my back garden. I feed them meal worms, they love them. pretty little creatures
Oh how lovely! We have two pairs in our garden but they aren't interested in getting close to us.... I think there's too many bugs in the garden. :) I would love it if they would come closer but all the North Queensland birds seem rather snobby. :D
i never knew their night voice. will listen for it now! Rockingham, Perth WA.
It's rather charming! I love hearing it in the night. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment :)
I've heard the nocturnal call all my life and thought it was crickets. I'm in Fremantle, Perth WA.
@@perrydowd9285 when I listen back, that sounds to me like crickets too.
Beautiful.. sources are soo rare on the midyim berry!! Can I plant them in full shade?
So glad it was useful! I have never successfully grown them in full shade. Part shade is okay. The most important thing is soil with good drainage. Native Ginger and Dianella grasses grow well in full shade and are also edible.(some Dianella grasses are toxic so you have to get the right species) Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Staying at dundee beach and was freaking out wondering what this was 😂
They make a really weird sound for sure! And they seem to like camping areas :) Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
Thanks for sharing this info❤
You are so welcome! I'm planning some more bird calls soon. I'm just having trouble getting distinct calls because they're all calling at once most of the time. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment :)
nah I heard these silly goobers at night once and istg they were loud af-
So loud! One night one let out an amazing shriek- wish I had been recording! It was freaky. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
@@woodwidewebeducation No problem !!
Stayed over at Gallipoli barracks, these birds never shut the hell up 😂
😂 I bet! They certainly make themselves known.
That ant looks so confused. XD What type of ant is it? Also, do they do this as a defense mechanism similar to daddy longlegs? They also seem to huddle together like clumps of Harvestmen. Such weird little critters. Love this editing btw. ❤
We call those ants "Green Ants"(Oecophylla smaragdina). Actually, I should do a video on them because they're interesting little critters... as children we used to eat them. I don't know why the Crane Flies do this and despite lots of googling and asking entomology type people I haven't been able to find out.. defence sounds like a good theory, other suggestions include mating or simply staying warm. Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to watch and comment!
@@woodwidewebeducation Thank you so much!! I am very interested in animals, and I wanna know about those Green Ants, so notifications on! 😁I couldn't imagine just eating an ant unless it's chocolate ants tho. XD I forgot to mention that the music was perfect too. Love a lil bit of Phonk House every once in a while. XD
Thanks so much! I will do that video soon! Goodness knows there are enough of those ants in my garden 😀
❤️ Cellar spiders with wings - same legs, same dance.
They do look alike! I must admit I have never seen those spiders dance 🙂 Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Ha ha A non-disparaging synonym for #BushTucker is #AustralianFood
Absolutely! Unfortunately, a lot of people still search on #bushtucker and being a small channel I need to cater to my audience. I do put First Nations Food in the tags. I will start using #AustralianFood too! Thanks for the suggestion 🙂
As a whingeing Pom, why is bush tucker disparaging? I just thought it meant food foraged from the wild.
We don't call potatoes "bush turnips".
It's my understanding that the disparagement is based in the history of the term. Colonists believed, incorrectly, that Australian Native Foods were tasteless and lacking in nutrition and so called it "bush tucker". Over the years this belief has persisted and for some people this means that the term is very offensive. Others have no problem with the term including many Indigenous Australians. So it's controversial.... much like many Indigenous Australians prefer to be called First Nations People but others find that term offensive. Complicated! Bush Tucker also seems absurdly inaccurate these days as many world class chefs seek out Australian Native Ingredients and demand certainly exceeds supply for most of those ingredients.

Amorphophallus paeoniifolius Amorphophallus konjak Amorphophallus galbra 😋
Haha - I don't even know how to get a hold of those species :D I'll do a video if I do!
@@woodwidewebeducation No probs. Just between you and me, I'm gradually finding ways to supplement our British diet that we eat in Australia (which we brought here with us) with some Australian foods, besides just the macadamia.
@elgalloazul there's so many delicious native foods. Right now I have a Turkey hindquarter in the oven with salt bush, kunzea and lemon myrtle as well as other seasoning.
I’m glad I found you, in new in the area of Rockhampton, Yeppoon and having arrived from Melbourne I’m finding your channel useful. Thank you 🙏🏼
Oh great! So glad that you're getting some value from my channel. Let me know if there's anything you want me to cover. Hope you're enjoying Central Queensland! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Can't wait to try this!
Tell me how it goes!
👏
😆
Thanks for the info! I wonder if this plant would do well in Victoria...
It occurs naturally in tropical and subtropical climates, but many subtropical plants do well in Victoria if protected from frost. I suspect this one might grow well if under a tree (part shade) in a warm Winter position and some extra watering in Summer. It's a lovely plant! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
@@woodwidewebeducation thanks so much, will give it a few for sure, lovely looking plant.
It may be the hungriest!!❤ 🐛
You're not wrong 😂 thanks for taking the time to watch and comment
@@woodwidewebeducation No problem 😊 👌
Nom nom
👍
It looks like us eating watermelon but in caterpillar form
😂 kind of does! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
I believe they get there name from the sound
You're probably right! Makes sense. 🙂 Thanks
Sooo hungry!
Absolutely! I can't believe how much this little one eats and how fast. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment 🙂
Great video!! A longer one would be awesome. We are in SE QLD and dragon lizards/ birds have spread dianellla all over our property. It's a pretty cool plant :)
Sounds awesome! Best propagation is through an animal haha. Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and comment :) Hopefully I can upgrade my technology and get that documentary made in the next month or so :)
Such a cutie! Came from reddit
Thanks so much! 🙂
Just beautiful, thank you! I’m going to celebrate by buying a melastoma and some blue flax lillies! Great photos and footage - I’ve tried to film or photograph them using my phone and they are so fast I just can’t do it!
Oh how lovely! Melastomas and Flax Lilies are such wonderful plants to have around. Bee photos are hard. I've been trying for years and I have a lot more failures than successes. I started by videoing them with my phone which helped me get an idea of their movements so I could predict where they'd be. Having a big patch of flowers that they like helps too! Thanks so much for your kind feedback :) and for taking the time to watch and comment.
Thankyou great info
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for taking the time to watch and give feedback! Happy planting :)
Yes the bees love it. We have Kailan too and they love the flowers just as much😎👍
Ooh I will have to truly that too!
