Goliath bird eating spider Despite its name, the goliath birdeater does not normally eat birds. Rather, it eats mostly invertebrates such as crickets, mealworms and moths, as well as small vertebrates such as frogs, mice and lizards. The Goliath birdeater is one of the few tarantulas which can capture and eat a full-grown mouse. While feeding, the spider will turn and leave a web barrier to prevent interruption from other animals. The goliath birdeater is fairly harmless to humans, as are most species of tarantulas. Like all tarantulas, it has fangs large enough to break the skin of a human. They do carry venom in their fangs and have been known to bite humans when threatened, but the venom is relatively harmless and its effects are comparable to those of a wasp’s sting. Tarantulas generally bite humans only in self-defense. The goliath birdeater has poor eyesight and mainly relies on vibrations in the ground that they can sense from their burrows.
This photo was taken at the top of O’Reilly’s National Park in Queensland. This bird is eating out of my fiancee’s hand.

A bright happy graphic for young children, and hopefully to promote an active lifestyle early in life.
This Dark-Eyed Junco, doesn’t eat junc, er..uh…junk food! So many birds converge on our Chinese Tallow Tree to get their fill on the cracked seed pods, which are plentiful. They must be tasty morsels. I’ve never tried one, but maybe I should…This photograph was taken with a Canon XTI in Roseville, California. /
A friendly rook (i think thats right) on the search for some food at a small cafe in Lynmouth in Dorset this winter.
A rainbow coloured parrot has a snack on a piece of bread. Which was my lunch, but I was too busy reading the paper to notice some of my sandwhich had dissapeared!
A red-tailed black cockatoo, native to Australia, uses it’s talons to hold some seeds while eating.
I was sat watching a single robin when his/here mate arrived on the same post. I’m not sure if they were sharing a meal or trying to pull the worm in half in order to feed to the tiny babies they had in a nest nearby. It looks like the photos are in the wrong order but they aren’t, the robin on the right actually flew backward off the post before flying off to the left. It was brilliant to watch them. I have a couple of photos of the tiny babies which I took very quickly so as the parents weren’t disturbed and I will upload them shortly. Thanks for looking. / Lisa x

“It pays to always have your camera with you” hammered in my photography teacher for the thousanth time as I fell asleep at my desk. Well he was right! When I was eating breakfast in Barrington, NSW this King Parrot landed on the balcony, so I got out the camera and the birdseed and started shooting!

Caught this guy from my canoe while slowly working my way through the tall reeds along the edge of the lake. He was very nervous as he darted here and there on top of the leaves floating on the water. He seemed to be very focused as he searched for a nice juicy bug.

The paddock is full of bees, dragonflies, wasps, and hornets at the moment, and these bee-eaters were having a feast. I just couldn’t believe my eyes when I was focussed on the one bee-eater on the branch proudly displaying its catch , when in flew a 2nd female with its catch. Right place at a lucky time! / Now if only I had my 2x converter that I have ordered, but has not arrived yet! I have cropped this one.
