The Dollarbird. Always good to see them out and about in the wet season in Australia's Top End

Terrific capture, EB! They surly are attractive terns.

Thanks much LD. Yes we are lucky here with several types visiting and the Least Terns which should start nesting soon.


All birds photographed in the wild.

Royal Tern. Couple more shots from the other day. I guess we were both disappointed in the second one! A leaf? Lol.

It may only be a leaf, but it's a great shot anyway! And so is your first shot!

These two are absolute beauties, Paul! I've gotta go with the second shot as my favorite. It say's it all about our national bird.

Excellent flight capture, Matt! He prolly oughta clean himself up a bit. :p

Great incoming shots, Gary!

Thank you kindly Mike. Happy trails.
