A final shot of a male Gang-gang Cockatoo near the Grampians on March 30. What a character. #birds #birdpic #birdphoto #wildlife #nature #SouthWestVictoria #Australia #Ozbirds #birds #birdphoto graphy

It's a jungle out there - wildlife in the burbs.

Bombs away dream baby!

Late in the season, but always a pleasure watching YTBCs go about their work. Just be very wary of walking below pine trees when these guys are about.

Big drive yesterday & landed in Parkes for some real work. Of course the camera accompanied me - lucky too.

Some breathtaking birb watching is a pure bonus. Details in the Alt-text as usual.
