Vixens other Shots and Random Wanderings

[Vixen]

A few shots I took today on a drive out.

Overlooking the Tweed Caldera. My house is down there somewhere



Another birdie nest



A pied Currawong





A Grey Fantail



A Goanna






A Paradise Riflebird. I've never seen one of these before and it was hard to get a good shot as he moved about pretty fast



It's spring!! Plenty of babies about





A Brown Cuckoo Dove



And lastly....a shot of the type of country I spent the day in

Some great work with that lens

Vixen, you are incredibly talented. Bravo!

Have to agree.

 

[Vixen]

Awwwww.....thanks you guys

I have to say that I am SOOOOOOOOO loving my new Tamzooka. I have taken birdwatching back up. I used to spend hours just birdwatching so being able to get photos of them has made it all the more attractive

It IS good for other stuff tho

Nice shots.

Do I see a spot next to the antennae? Mine needs a cleaning also.

I missed it Marilynne Yep!! I have numerous spots and really do need to clean my sensor. I just keep forgetting about it even tho I am clearing up spots in PP'ing almost every day

Great shots.
I particularly like the dragonfly.

Hope that spot is Superglue - you know … from when you glued that Tamzooka on.

I love that lens that much that it may as well be superglued on

No idea what this beetle is but I chased him all around a picnic table trying to get a photo





a Galah



a juvenile Pied Butcherbird. He was happy for me to get within 6ft of him to take a shot but then his mum called him away. They have a wicked hook on their beak

 

[Lawrence]

Lovely shots and that beetle is something else! :applouse:

 

[mikew_RIP]

Its a spotted red beetle

 

[Vixen]

Oh...Oh...OH....EXCITED!! Look what is in my garden!!
Sorry it's a crap photo but I just could not get a clear shot of this little fella who must be 30ft up the tree....a koala!! a koala!!



a Kookaburra



and some Chestnut-Breasted Mannikins

 

[Vixen]

Random shots taken at the marina yesterday

 

[Lawrence]

great bird shots. Hope that Koala hangs around so you can share some good shots with us. They are so cute and cuddly.

Went looking for him this morning and didn't see him

I have to say, the birds in your locale have such colorful names.
