Lame-Duck I have indeed had pine nuts  More info | Dec 14, 2022 22:39 | #21170 Tronhard wrote in post #19456338 Time on Tiritiri I just spent a few days as a volunteer on the open scientific sanctuary of Tiritiri Matangi, in Auckland's Hauraki Gulf. It has been a trail blazer in an alliance between the NZ Govt Dept. of Conservation, Academic institutions, and the community (including the indigenous Maori) to return a farmed island back to its original native bush state, and to make it a home to breed and study endangered species of both flora and fauna. The island's population of wildlife included the native Takahe, a native dweller of tussock lands of which there are barely birds 360 left; Tuatara a reptile that dates barck 250 million years and precedes the dinosaurs and a lot of other endangered and threatened species. A lot of these birds live in deep bush, and are coloured to blend into it, so they are hard to isolate and get a decent image of. Here are a couple of images of the Korimako or Bell Bird. They are very small, move erratically and continuously and stick to deep cover generally. All images hand-held, available light Interloper: the eternal love triangle inaction, as two males (left) vie for the female on the right. The middle one was successful as the two went off together A male Korimako gives me the look as he briefly decides if I am a threat A Korimako waits its turn to access a water point All three of your images are very nicely captured, Trevor! Excellent sharpness. LD, or Mike

Nice setting. steveb108 wrote in post #19456417 I think this is referred to as a Manky Mallard. Only one I've seen, I think. Excellent close-up shot, Steve. I've not heard of a Manky mallard. Interesting history of this duck. I'm surprised they can fly. Miranda1 wrote in post #19456450 Another shot of the Lanner (captive).
