Aww OK. But hey have a really good prison there in Tasmania. It's called Port Arthur. Even has a cool (and dark) solitary confinement cell!

I certainly sounds like a nice place to visit.

A female Regent Bowerbird and the stunningly coloured male below her, taken in the Lamington National Park. :-)

Terrific capture, Dennis! These two Regent Bower birds set up nicely for you. The male is amazingly beautiful!

Lock 'im up. Charge 'im with sedition! :-P

These are really two very nice shots, Richard. However, you have 3 Spur-winged lapwings in your first photo. The Canon Digital Photography Forums (Birds in Pairs) law only allows you to have two birds in a given photo. Series fines and other stiff penalties can result when these written in stone laws are broken. I felt it my duty to inform you of this serious infraction. :-P

Let's give him one more chance to change his ways. :-P

Wow. What have I done :-(
Looks like I'm really in the pooh!!
Port Arthur would be a bit rugged at moment.
No roof windows or floor - sounds a bit harsh :-P

I repent Mike :-P
And will ensure I try in future to only post true pairs.
For now these will pass muster :-P

Having a little off the beaten path fun on these forums every now and then is a hoot, Richard. :lol: Sorry you ended up the one being picked on :-P , but I'm sure my turn will come around soon enough. And lets not forget that Pippan was throwing a little gas on the fire too. :lol:

I really like these two shots of the parent birds, and their cute little young'uns. I can't honestly say why, but I especially like the little black ball of fuzz (Tasmanian Native chick)!

Thanks Mike :-) There is something about those baby hens. They come with much "character".
Yes very good banter :-P

I can't look at a shot like this without smiling, Richard! You certainly captured these two beautifully. It looks like both of them got together purposely, just for you to take a photo these two pals. ;-)a
