Babies Growing Up

Up until last summer I had never seen a juvenile King Parrot, in fact I hadn't even seen a King Parrot male or female until April 2019. Since then they have frequently visited our property. It started with 2 females and 1 male juvenile King Parrots which was amazing as we were able to watch the male transform into the stunning male that he is with his all red head and chest. This first juvenile Male had his first chick last summer and the Male and female bought him down to show him off to my husband and I. Normally...

Good Things Come In Small Packages

With my dislike for winter and the cold weather I tend to hibernate a bit, coming out only for necessities. This gives me an opportunity to go back through my photos for the year and to reflect on my many road trips. Some of these road trips are just for the day, others are overnight stays taking me to New South Wales and a lot of Queensland but still have so many more places to go. I have posted images of the Male Scarlet Honey eater which was one of the biggest highlights on my 2019 photography year, so much...

Curious Cockatoo

Curious Cockatoo

A very well known Australian Character is the Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo  They most certainly have their place in the Australian Landscape. Everyone loves the Cockatoo, well almost everyone apart from the few people who like to have peace and quiet around them. The Cockatoo is well know for its loud shattering screeches They Breed from May-Sept in Northern Areas of Australia and from Aug-Jan in southern parts of Australia. The female will lay 2-3 eggs I captured this photo below very early in the morning and there were plants behind them, I had a shallow depth of field and with their...
