Ibis in the Air

A few days ago whilst walking to a railway station I was afforded the opportunity to capture this moment. I was trying to get close to the ibis when it took to the air, so I kept on snapping. I … Continue reading

Landing Duck

A photo of a feathered friend in the process of landing. I like how it appears here. Sort of still, but also sort of in motion. I also like that the water is not heavily disturbed. I hope you enjoy.

Platalea regia

Seeing a royal spoonbill, or any spoonbill in an urban environment is quite “Unlikely“. Whilst there are some that live in the Centennial Parklands, they’re still an uncommon sight. Spoonbills feed by having their beak open and moving it from … Continue reading

Cygnus atratus

Two that were running on the water shortly before this photo was taken. Great, powerful form in these two birds. I think that they look large in this photo, but that’s probably got to do with the wings, and also … Continue reading
