EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Don Hadden, we witness the glamorous lifestyle of a Masked Woodswallow at Mt Liebig Aboriginal Community in Australia. Perched gracefully on an Erythrina vespertilio tree, also known as Bat's Wing Coral Tee or Stuart Bean Tree, this fashionable bird showcases its impeccable taste in jewelry. Aboriginal communities have long recognized the beauty and versatility of the seed pods from these trees. Ingeniously transforming them into stunning necklaces, they add a touch of natural elegance to any outfit. And who better to model such exquisite craftsmanship than our feathered friend? But that's not all! The resourceful Aborigines have also discovered another use for the soft wood of these trees - crafting coolamons or shallow dishes used by women when gathering bush tucker. Talk about multitasking! As if its fashion-forward accessories and practical contributions weren't impressive enough, our stylish woodswallow even sports a trendy pollen accessory on its forehead. Clearly ahead of its time in terms of beauty trends! So next time you're strolling through the Australian outback, keep an eye out for these avian trendsetters perched among the branches. They may just inspire your own fashion choices while reminding us all that nature is truly the ultimate designer!
