Many thanks Mike, always appreciated.
I'm astonished at what those fascinating Anhingas are able to ingest.:lol:

I finally managed to spot the new Jacana chicks at Fogg Dam, NT. Jacana parents are very protective and hide their chicks under their feathers in case of danger. We saw them nesting with four eggs, and one day the nest was empty. The chicks join their parents foraging as soon as they hatch, and spotting them amongst the waterlilies is tricky. :-)

Cute family!

Australian Darter thanks to the new Denoise feature in the latest drop of Lightroom. Previously dismissed, now ISO 25600 seems quite useable.

Tried once again to capture this bird as I've seen em around the yard . I think this is a house Finch? Whatever the name, got some really nice coloring and likes to pose in inconvenient areas... :-P
