Tracking this graceful gull across the landscape with my telephoto
Taken on Fraser Island Trip 6-10th July 2009
Thanks to Ingrid's tip, I took a trip to the docks. It's a five minute drive from Berkeley Castle where I had just had a meeting.
A group of people standing on the sharp cliffs of the western part of Sea Lion Island. The strong westerly winds and subsequent waves carve a stunning landscape.

According to the guy who came along and appeared to know a lot more about birds than I do, this is a Sharp-shinned Hawk.
I heard something in the brush near me as I approached it. I got too close but scaring the hawk worked out for me as he flew to this perch which provided a better view. This is the first one of these birds that I've seen at the park.

Meerkat's live in colonies in burrows on the very dry sandy open spaces of Southern Africa.
You will always find one of the Meerkat's on 'Watch patrol' as a look out for predators.
They have very sharp teeth and claws,however they look cute.
Hepatica acutiloba
Pictures from an outing to Hemlock Cliffs in Crawford Co. Early spring wildflowers were in full force. If there is a better site for Hepatica in IN I'd be surprised.
