I have seen quite a number of these along Coquitlam River, but that doesn't guarantee a shot unless luck is on your side due to their almost nonstop movement.
Coquitlam River, Coquitlam, BC.

Back when Pan Am was running the SJWA/WASJ it was usually pretty nice as they didn't stop at NMJ, most of the time. Back in December of 2010 SJWA or SJPO was about to pass under Rt. 202 in Hampden with traffic from the NBSR. Meanwhile in the distance a C5 Galaxy can be seen making its approach to land at BIA.
I got a first-class ticket on the nonstop to nowhere
Where it takes me I don't know
I guess the track you lay are your own
(Pedionomus torquatus)
Somewhere 70km North of Deniliquin - NSW
Austrália
When we were planning our trip and looking for interesting places and species to photograph in/around Victoria, we came across this amazing but endangered bird. From that moment, we couldn’t wait to have the oportunity to get some shots of it!
However, when we contacted Patricia Maher in late April, we found out that Philip Maher’s available dates were super limited. Since we’d already booked our internal flights, it didn’t seem doable at first. But we’d left our last day in Melbourne free, partly to avoid the risk of delayed or canceled flights and partly to enjoy the city a bit before heading back home on the 26th.
That gave us a whole day (the 25th) to go for this bird! We booked two nights in Deniliquin and braced ourselves for a birding marathon starting at 6:30 AM and possibly ending at 2 AM on the 26th (luckily, our flight home from Melbourne wasn’t until 3 PM).
Two days before the big day, we got in touch with Patricia again, and she told us the weather forecast wasn’t looking great – rain was expected. But hey, plans are plans.
The day before, we drove from Melbourne to Deniliquin (a 3-hour, 270km drive) under nonstop rain. By this point, we were beyond exhausted: after 4 weeks of birding (our longest trip ever!), dealing with an 11-hour time difference, staying in 12 different accommodations, catching 5 internal flights and 3 international ones, eating food very different from what we were used to (and often skipping meals), waking up most days at 5 AM, we almost decided to turn back.
Plus, we already had a decent collection of photos on our hard drives. Honestly, all we wanted was to head back to Melbourne, relax, and enjoy the photos we’d taken.
The idea of driving in the rain for what might turn out to be a wasted effort wasn’t motivating at all. We were this close to turning around and heading back.
Thank goodness we didn’t! Not only did the rain ease up the next day, but we also managed to spot more than 40 new species – including both the male and female of this gorgeous bird. We got hundreds of photos from all the angles and distances we wanted! The female wasn’t super cooperative (she didn’t show off her pretty legs), but the male was a real show-off and a photographer’s dream. I’ll share his photos later too.
Note 1: This is the female of the species. She’s actually more colorful than the male, though some individuals are even more vibrant than this one.
Note 2: Nope, she’s not in the nest. Fun fact about this species: it’s the male that incubates the eggs and raises the chicks. The female focuses on defending her territory and mates with multiple males.
==================***==================
All my photos are now organized into sets by the country where they were taken, by taxonomic order, by family, by species (often with just one photo for the rarer ones), and by the date they were taken.
So, you may find:
- All the photos for this trip Austrália (2024) (309)
- All the photos for this order CHARADRIIFORMES (1170)
- All the photos for this family Pedionomidae (Pedionomídeos) (4)
- All the photos for this species Pedionomus torquatus (4)
- All the photos taken this day 2024/11/25 (30)

Life allows for moments to contemplate all sorts of crazy things. Pick one, or two. Anything you like from the extinction of squirrels to visiting fantastic sims such as NonStop!

Morning view of Yojoa lake from the pier of Hondurate hotel where I was staying. It was pouring rain nonstop for 48 hours prior.
this was a one shot wonder...i was imaging some flowers when I notice this hummer diving high pass me..................I didn't know they ate insects................didn't even see the spider when I imaged this on scene.............................. :))
An early trip to Palmer. I can't find anything about this scene in my notes, but I suspect it is 1989 or so. A mix of CV and GT Gp38s are heading what appears to be away from the diamond as a trio of CV green and yellow Gp9s and a CN caboose wait on the interchange lead to CR. With Conrail's Boston and Albany line crossing the CV, Palmer Mass could be a busy place. Or, you could sit around for hours without a single thing turning a wheel, like the rest of New England.
Now Boarding... Flight 2012, Nonstop Service to Venus!
The next scheduled flight will be in 2117!
I couldn't wait to get this one uploaded! As I was watching the transition of Venus across the Sun, this plane just happened to be in the right spot at the right time as I just happened to press the shutter release!
This will be the last transition of Venus across the Sun in our lifetimes! I hope you got to see some of it! :-) I am actually still in process of taking photos of it as I write this description!
