Starling Leaving a Bollard
Another photo of this bird. Sort of creates a set, sharing this does. It’s also a really lucky shot as I’ve been trying to capture the moment a bird takes off and this is really, really close, I think. I … Continue reading
Preening and Watching
I had to wait a few minutes to get this photo. I was trying to get a few of the gull preening but it stopped whilst I was pointing the camera in its direction. Eventually it resumed but it seemed … Continue reading

At the Step
Another photo of these two swans (previous ones here). I like this photo but I’m not sure I can explain as to why. I think it has to do with the colour balance and the simplicity of the scene, but … Continue reading

Cockatoo
Been a while since I’ve shared a photo involving one or more cockatoos. Here is a photo of one cockatoo. I’m fairly certain it was watching what I was doing, though perhaps not so much in this photo. Much more … Continue reading
