Porphyrio melanotus
More birds! So these are Australasian waterhens. Large feet, easy to adapt to a number of situations. In this photo they were running. Well, one of them was beginning to run and the other was at first. I think they … Continue reading

A photo of three pigeons. Two are having a minor squabble. I was watching these pigeons for a while as they were bathing in the water and I wanted to get a few shots of them in motion for the … Continue reading
Emden Goose

Leans in to Take the Food
A “Cheeky” cockatoo goes in to get a bite whilst the other one is preoccupied. I really like the form and pose of both the cockatoos in this photo. I also like how they’re framed and their colouring. This is … Continue reading
