Larrikin Rainbow Lorikeet
I love capturing the Rainbow Lorikeet also known as Blue Mountain Parrot and Red-collared Lorikeet. They would be one of the most expressive birds that I know. Their antics and gestures are just beautiful. They certainly like to entertain those watching them. The colors of their feathers are vibrant and rich and combine together to give the WOW factor. They feed all year round at our property in the flowering natives. Size: 25-32cm No other Australian parrot has streaked blue head and orange chest. Their desired habitat is rain forests, eucalypt forests, woodlands, paperbark woodlands, coastal banksia, scrubs, heaths, mangroves,...
Male Regent Bowerbird
What a stunning bird he is. My printer is just been given these 2 photos to print up on Canvas and Frame the male Regent Bowerbird can be a bit hard to see in the dark dense trees of a rain forest, but if you do manage to see him you are very lucky. I captured this one last October and again in November I will add both of these to our shop as well and they will be available as a portrait 40cmx50cm Dedicated to all the Australian Fauna and Flora lost to the 2019/2020 bushfires ...
A Special Very Cheeky Crimson Rosella
Selecting one of my photos to be printed on canvas then framed, is a very difficult time consuming project, often involving going through hundreds and hundreds of great photos. Then all of a sudden you see a photo that puts the biggest smile on your face, a photo that you experienced a special connection with and you know that is the photo to have done. That was the case with this unbelievable Crimson Rosella It wasn't long after my Mum passed away, and I was standing in a garden taking photos of a handsome male King Parrot I wasn't expecting...
Male King Parrot
This Male King Parrot just flew into our backyard yesterday. He has been hanging around here since he was a young juvenile, now he has bought his female friend and his young male juvenile chick only out of the nest for a few days. Where we live it is very hot and humid, and we have lived here for 28 years and we have never seen them here before, then about last April they showed up and stayed around. They usually are more up on the tablelands and mountains. I won't complain as they make our garden look pretty with...
The Last Day Of Our Road Trip To Dubbo
On the morning of our 7th day road trip to Dubbo, I was awake very early as I wanted to enjoy the grounds before we headed up to have breakfast in the restaurant before leaving. Departing Dorrigo, we were originally going to travel down the mountain which was a beauitful drive calling into Bellingen but a friend suggested we do the inland road, she said it was a beautiful drive. So we set off, the road was narrow but had a good surface winding its way around corners down gullies, driving through some of Australians most beautiful National Parks Junuy...
