The headless chicken ... This sun worshipper at Manly Cove on a late autumn day looked like she had suffered a rather unfortunate accident. For all my latest photos visit my gallery: mike-gee.smugmug.com/Latestworks/

In the scheme of things, chronologically, this is blue three. But photographically it is blue two. The original blue two was jammed up in a gateway by some avian admirers — neither a threat to the other — so I picked them up in the approved method to break the deadlock. With a hand full of bluey, there was no photo-op. I haven't seen that one again. But it's probably still around — I know dark blue is.
This little beauty — somewhere between 12-15" long— and smallest of the three is much paler and catching a few late afternoon rays before night and a forecast change. Why, you ask, after 50+ years of metrication would I estimate in inches? It's simply for the sake of rounding. Inches, being longer, round more sensibly in estimates on this scale than the roughly 3x as clumsy centimetres and 30x times as silly millimetres: same measurements, more efficient shorthand.
the other day afternoon with temp 32+, I saw this pied currawong lying flat on the ground with wings wide open. I thought its dead but not. When i approached , it flew to a branch. and also with beaks open for a long time too.
my first capture on this kind of bird behaviour. I asked the birders in a FB group. They replied it was trying to kill the parasites by different methods.
some chickens, magpie, myna may also do these too.
Please let me know if you captured this kind of behaviour before.

And from memory quite a hot day. Cinque Terre was in no way overrated; I loved it, Viv loved it, we were there for 10 nights I think and were busy exploring everyday. I even got in a few swims myself. This shot is a couple of days before the previous one, though they have a ferry service here too, just pretty much right near here. Curiously I think there were a few Sydneysiders sunbaking on the concrete that day, maybe not in this shot, but who knows! And yes, the focus is on the men.

It was a wondrful anchorage. A big croc was just near the boat when we arrived. He visited close by each night. I was so disapointed that i never got an iconic pic, He looked amazing as he waddled down the sand from his sunbaking location on day one.

This bird slipped across the track in front of me and I crept up to see it flop down in a sunny patch for a sunbake.
I managed to slowly get around the obstructing vegetation for a few shots.
Here it is alerted by the shutter noise. It slowly lowered its head again as though it was slipping into a torpor.
When it got sick of me it went into deeper cover and proceeded to preen.

For the final month of my 365 Project, I will continue to produce images that are based on a topic or my interpretation of a statement/word from a previously compiled list.
The statement for today was 'Signs of Summer'. Which for us here in the Southern Hemisphere commences today, the 1st of December.
Although the temperature is in the mid 20's today and a lot cooler than yesterday, a few brave souls have wandered down to soak up the rays signalling that the first 'Signs of Summer' are here.
The Rats (gulls) with wings have dropped in hopeful of an easy feed before the afternoon cool change comes in.
I was delighted to spot this beautiful lace monitor lizard (aka goanna) in our back garden, atop a stone dragon, enjoying a sunbake.
A dead calm sea with Moreton Island sand hills visible on the horizon. I have no idea why the candles were there...........perhaps a romantic evening for someone the night before?

This small crab spider also called white flower spider was lying back on this daisy flower with his underneath parts towards the late afternoon sun as if sunbaking.

Candlagan creek is an estuary that extends five km inland. The tidal flows at its mouth are popular with youth and adults with the east side of the bridge being a popular jump spot into the water, and the fish breeding grounds starting just beyond the bridge to its west.

The shingleback skink, Tiliqua rugosa asper, isn't the only reptile here in the Mulligans Flat Nature Reserve. But they're my favourite.
