Some really nice images there Richard, looks like you had a better day than we had at Australia Gardens the other week.

Lovely set Richard. All natural looking shots. Well done and well presented.

Thank you both for your kind comments.

John, its the luck of the draw some days, and while this is only a sample of the birds I managed to photograph on Saturday, being there early certainly helps.

Nice series Richard. Even managed to make a bin chicken look good.

Thanks Todd, everything is fair game when I'm out with the camera.

The spoonbill would be my pick too. Little shadow on the beak but its turned its head just enough to the eye is well exposed. Nice natural surroundings and colours.
