Birds
Folder: Nature
The photos in this album have been taken mostly, but not always, in Australia. Quite a number will have been taken in the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic islands.
I am gradually moving the content of my "Birds" album here from F*****r. As I do so, it is likely to seem as if I take nothing but bird photos. That isn't normally so!

Rainbow Lorikeet
The local callistemon shrubs are attracting the lorikeets. Taken with RMC Tokina 200mm 3.5
Superb Blue Wren (male)
I photographed this male Superb Blue Wren in a Melbourne back yard. They are quite tiny and almost constantly moving. Vivitar (Komine) 135/2.8
Superb Blue Wren (female)
This female Superb Blue Wren was jumping around the bushes with the male, so I presume they are a pair. An interesting contrast in plumage! Vivitar 135mm 2.8.
One of the local galahs
For some reason it was a little fluffed up, though it wasn't a cold day. RMC Tokina 400/5.6
New Holland Honeyeater
New Holland Honeyeater (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae)
New Holland Honeyeater
This New Holland honeyeater was eating nectar from these neighbouring shrubs. I was bemused by the orange patch on its forehead until I realised it is pollen. RMC Tokina 200/3.5 + Kenko X1.4 TC.

Kookaburra trio
We found this trio of Laughing Kookaburras (Dacelo novaeguineae) in the Grampians National Park. These are giant kingfishers and among Australia's most loved birds.
Taken with SMC-M Pentax Macro 100/4.0
