Clouds fascinate me. Their forms and combinations seem infinite, and I never tiring of watching their changes– minute by minute.
Here is a photograph taken in the local park. The presence of clouds has made the scene what it is…

What is more heartwarming than watching prospective parents in the process of making their home?
In the case of birds, it’s all about nests.
Australia’s Rainbow Lorikeets put their creativity to work in tree hollows.
Here’s a pair that are engrossed in the task. I photographed these in the local park in a Sydney suburb.

What is it about flight that grabs your attention?
The star of this photograph is, in my opinion, the graceful sea-bird. Wings outstretched, its journey seems effortless.
I’m not quite certain what type of bird it is. My best guess is that it’s an Egret, but the image is too small for me to be sure.
Be that as it may, it certainly catches my eye.

I see you…
This Kookaburra certainly seems to have me and my camera firmly in his sights. Is he posing? Certainly he’s making it easy for me to capture his image.
The more I photograph birds, the more I see their differing characteristics. Some, such as Kookaburras, Herons and Sulphur-crested Cockatoos, actually seem to co-operate with the photographer. Others — Willy Wagtails, Noisy Miners and Wrens for example — often fly off at the slightest movement.
Nature is fascinating…

Quite often I see the White-faced Herons.
They fly in to the shallows of the local swimming baths ( which are formed by a shark-net in the river).
I have never actually seen a flock of Herons. In fact, I’ve only ever come across these elegant birds as singles or in pairs.
In this photo, I rather fancy that one of them is playing hard to get.
