Australian Logrunner ( (Orthonyx temminckii ) HD Video 3 / 4

Описание: These lovely terrestrial Rainforest dwellers are relatively common East of the Great Dividing range in Southern Queensland. They tend to forage quietly on the forest floor often in pairs and family parties. An interesting feature is the way they use their tail to prop up their bodies whilst scraping for food. Logrunners are Winter breeders and build a domed nest at the base of a tree, usually near the ground I filmed these birds on the Lamington Plateau in South East Queensland. 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.
