This bird is literally a spearfisher. Darting through the water with speed it spears fish on it's beak! Once out of the water, it skillfully throws it's head back, slides the fish off and up into the air then catches them as they fall into it's open beak. We were amazed and enthralled for 20 min as we watched one bird doing this at Lake Munmorah, Central Coast, NSW. Of course, I didn't have my camera with me that day!
Long Term Intervention Monitoring project is currently underway in the Gwydir catchment.
As part of this monitoring program, solar powered RMCAM internet enabled cameras and weather sensors were recently installed in remote locations across the Gwydir Wetlands State Conservation Area.
There is good water availability in the wetlands this season due to prolonged water deliveries to the wetlands.
As luck would have it, a number of waterbirds have now set up nests, close to these cameras. Species include Little Pied Cormorants, Darters, Magpie Geese, Plumed Whistling Ducks and Australian White Ibis.
The camera is now set up to take images every 10 minutes.
The obvious advantage of using this approach is being able to monitor species/events etc in a remote location, with flexible regularity and without disturbance.
Found a cool 1974 Dodge Dart at the Canadian Tire in Campbell River. Here's some different angles and views using my wide angle 11-17 Tokina Lens.
