Poor Cobain! The big doll is taking over.

Cobain: Help!

Red Wattlebird (Anthochaera carunculata)

I was hoping to be able to get a shot of the chicks in the nest in the Lilly Pilly tree - I can't get a clear shot from the balcony (turns out I can't get a clear shot from anywhere) - so wandered into the garden with the 300 mm lens. This is one of the parents taking a break on our Quince tree, the chicks were calling for food from the nest. It has been a hot and humid morning here (around 33°C (~90°F) and 53%humidity) and this one looked worn out!

The great gray owl took off for the prey in the ground.

An Great Egret is approaching take off from this branch on Grindstone Creek.

Early mornings, wonderful moments in time

Female Cardinal

Pulled in at Kneeton near East Bridgford on the way home from a visit to the coast. I liked this shot of the sheep and lambs and this is cropped to about a quarter I reckon.

Its sharp enough I suppose but I dislike the oof area's..

This is the lens I was referring to that I just don't like that much but it doesn't do such a bad job but..... you know I just am not that pleased with its performance.

This was shot at 132.00mm f/6.3 @1/200 and iso 100

Those lambs are irresistible but I didn't upload because imho something is lacking.. and if you are thinking of saying mint sauce, don't even think about it lol...

This duck was crazy while bathing. Darting back and forth, shaking and dipping into the water. Took quite a few shots to get one I liked, but this is it.

There was a really big sea running yesterday, but while the tide was out it felt quite calm and idyllic. I'd had this idea of doing some more driftwood figures, so this is what slowly evolved. Taking hands is by Ivor Cutler, and is a perfect title. I left to play with crashing waves and got absolutely drenched, while they stayed walking on the beach.

Wakering Photography Group Calendar 2020.

The calendar theme for 2020 is UK Nature and Wildlife.

Each WPG member submitted three photographs for the 2020 calendar of which only one could be selected from their entries.

We had three independent judges, Professional Photographer Clarissa Debenham, Accomplished Photographer Stuart Howell and Jan Swift.

My third entry were these fabulous Fallow Deer, this male and female were laying low hoping I would pass, which I did quietly but not before I captured this wonderful moment.

I am delighted that the judges selected this image as one of the twelve for the 2020 calendar.

after enjoying a bit of time on the fountain.

Purple Finch? maybe?

I also have two really pretty bird baths right by this fountain and that's actually where the majority of these small birds go for water.

Although nearly fully grown and independent, before crossing the path, this male kitten wanted his mother to take the lead.

Heading out of town for a few days. Just hope my pilot is not up to the 'tricks' the Canadian RCAF Snowbirds perform like this........:)

...................................................................................................

Départ de la ville pour quelques jours. J'espère juste que mon pilote n'est pas à la hauteur des "trucs" que les Snowbirds canadiens de l'ARC exécutent comme ça ....... :)
