Looking for Something

Posted on February 13, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

Another bird, and it’s a purple swamphen and it was walking around looking like it was looking for something. It probably was looking for food. Maybe. I don’t know what swamphens eat, so… yeah. I hope you enjoy.

Willy Wagtail

Posted on February 3, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

I’d planned to write today but I didn’t. Instead, here’s a photo of a willy wagtail that is out of focus, but I still like. Not sure why. Think I’ve just not gotten one in flight this clear before. I … Continue reading →

Careful Wading

Posted on January 21, 2026 by Stupidity Hole

I can’t remember what, exactly the Ibis was doing when I took this photo. I’m fairly certain it was walking through the water. Not 100%. This is my submission into Leanne Cole‘s “Monochrome Madness” for this week. The next  one is … Continue reading →

I recently found myself in Centennial Park. Hadn’t been since earlier on in the year and it was nice to be back. Took a bunch of photos, including this one. To me, this photo has a strong emotive quality. It … Continue reading →

Took this photo last year whilst at Centennial Parklands. Don’t have anything to say about it. Just ducklings and a duck floating there on the water. I hope you enjoy.

Pelican’s Pelican

Posted on April 13, 2025 by Stupidity Hole

Approaching the Ground

Posted on January 30, 2025 by Stupidity Hole

Not sure if this is one of the more interesting ibis photos I’ve taken or not, but I do like it. Has perhaps too much of a contrast between light and shade, which helps make the ibis look odd, or … Continue reading →

Three Fairy Martins

Posted on January 29, 2025 by Stupidity Hole

Another photo I thought I’d shared but hadn’t. One of the martins was trying to land and, from what I remember, it disrupted the one it’s above in this photo. This is my submission into Leanne Cole‘s “Monochrome Madness” for this … Continue reading →

One-leg Pose

Posted on January 25, 2025 by Stupidity Hole

Not actually a pose but rather the pelican landing (from what I remember), but it looks like a pose. I hope you enjoy.
