    Catching up

    On our drive out of Browns Road, saw a wee flock of White-winged Chough feeding just behind the fence. I followed them for a bit, struggling to get pictures as they always seem to hid behind grass or branches. I did manage this focused shot in the end, was quite pleased with the result.

    A bit better this one

    On our way out of this woodland, I came across another Grey Currawong and managed a slightly better image this time. But they do seem to be a little shy, don't they.

    Waking up

    More wandering around in the woodland, which unusually was really very open , we came across a gorgeous wee Australian Owlet Nightjar was just waking up from his roost. A few pictures at distance then we quickly moved on to let him get on with whatever he next wanted to do. Thank goodness for...

    Enjoying the view

    We were having a lovely wander in the open woodland area at Browns Road, not a lot of shade there though. Having seen my first Grey Currawong when we were staying with Ken and Dora at the beginning of my South Australia stay, and another (getting my first pictures of one), here I was to see one...

    Collecting grass seeds

    We then set off to explore another of the conservation areas - Browns Road. A White-winged Chough was wandering through the grass as we made our way in. It looked very dry for springtime. The Adelaide Hills did have some bad fires after I left. Not a really great bird image, but I loved the...

    No co-operation

    I'd found a female Hooded Robin with a youngster as well. I started filming in the hope of getting some interaction... but all I got was action as she flew off. Actually it turns out that this is the only flight picture for this species in the Gallery!! Hmmm.... think it's headed for Opus then...
