Author and artist Bridget Farmer explains how to become a ‘bird noticer’ and watch the bush birds around you, like the White-browed Scrubwren and Spotted Pardalote.

Bridget Farmer is originally from Northern Ireland. She initially visited Australia to friends but fell in love with the country (and a certain Australian man) and stayed longer than expected. She lives in country Victoria with her husband, two young sons, a whole flock of chickens and a studio rabbit. Bridget is a printmaker and her work celebrates Australia’s birdlife and her chooks. She has written and illustrated two children’s books… and there are more on the way.
