Porphyrio melanotus in Motion
Yesterday afternoon I went on a short cycle. During the cycle I saw this Australasian waterhen underneath a transmission tower looking for food as I passed on by. On my way back home the waterhen was still there so I … Continue reading
Streptopelia chinensis

Eating Time
This was taken a few days ago whilst walking along The Cooks River. For most of the time this galah was eating very little of its body was visible. It was quite cute. I hope you enjoy.
