More of our Brown Thornbill on a hunting expedition


All three of these are terrific shots, Richard! Hard for me to pick a favorite.

Doing some review of old photos and editing things I just had no idea "how" to deal with in the past. A couple of interesting ones, to me.

A Peacock at the local game farm giving quite a standup display:

this Grey Shrike-thrush is amazing.
I think it's the same one that taps (belts) on our window and sings its wondrous chorus to us.
Here it has been exploring my timber stack.
It had just flown up onto a power pole looked at me then flew right down and landed on the gate beside me and was only a foot (30cm) away staring at me.
Back to the pole then back to me, walked about on gate, scavenged a grub and took off to the timber to devour
Never experienced anything like it. Awesome
