Amazing clip from Michael (@outsidefourwallsphotography)!
Here is a bit of context he gave us alongside this clip:
“We volunteer for the Victorian Malleefowl Recovery Group to monitor Malleefowl mounds to gauge the breeding population of this incredible bird which is sadly a threatened species in Victoria. This occurs annually at the start of summer - today we were treated to the amazing sight of a bird maintaining the mound to regulate the temperature of the core which contains the incubating eggs. It was quite magical!” ... See MoreSee Less

NEW BLOG POST !
In August last year Liz Kington from the National Malleefowl Recovery Group asked me if I would like to come and assist her and Carl Danzi (also from the WA Malleefowl Recovery Group) deliver a South West Catchments Council (SWCC) funded Grid Survey of a Reserve east of Nyabing in the Great Southern region of Western Australia. We have been very lucky to escape the worst of the lockdowns endured by many in the eastern states due to the Covid 19 pandemic so we were able to travel around the state without restriction. Badgebup is about 330 km from Perth, so I put on an Audible book and headed off to Nyabing to meet Liz and Carl. We stayed in the Nyabing Community Hub and Inn. The original hotel was knocked down but the town folk joined together to find the funds to build a new one. It was a great place to stay with comfortable accommodation and a yummy café and pub.
