    Willie Wagtail. Willie Wagtail stops by often at the pool, but he is not an easy bird to photograph - his whites over-expose, his black bits under-expose, his eye has a tendency to disappear among the black feathers. But every now and again I get lucky, and an acceptable photo results. This...

    This little fellow is everywhere you go in Australia. But I still find them photogenic and their tail flicking antics always bring a smile

    Evening Bath

    Willie Wagtail. My apologies for the wire - the pool is an artificial small pool, provided for the birds and fed by an ordinary lavatory cistern concealed beneath a bush in a native flora reserve - hence the wire, which was placed there to slow down ambush predators such as cats and dogs. A...

    These are some of the most common birds Id encountered during my stay in Perth recently. This pair is seen here performing an interesting ritual where one of the willies would fetch food for the other. Some kind of a courtship display or parenting behaviour ?

    'Sweet Willie!!'

    This sweet little fellow was sitting on the lead outside the stable and at first glance I thought that the Restless Flycatcher was there!! In my haste to get to the house to grab the camera I didn't look too hard in case it flew away but to my delight it was still there when I got back outside...

    'Up or Down!'

    One of my many residents!! Thought I could share the antics of one that couldn't make up its mind as whether to stay or go, it wasn't sure if I would go closer or stay where I was! Hope you like it! BS!!

    the wagtails can make some great sounds from a normal whistle to a noise similar to a rattle

    'Contemplation!'

    This Willie Wagtail was trying to make up its mind as to whether to chase off the 'Magpie, Mudlark, Raven or Sparrow' or to eat the jam-roll crumbs that I had put out with the bread! The sparrow won out and gobbled the jam having it all over it's face!! I was off to photograph the Kestrel so...

    This was the fellow that told the 'Flame Robin' that the water was great the other day but I've only just had time to look at the rest of the photos taken that afternoon. Hope you like!

    Caught him while he was chasing insects. I know it is slightly grainy, but I'm just happy to get a close shot of him.

    The tractor had been ripping the ground along the top area of the creek where we are about to plant 2000 trees and this little fellow just sat and watched!

    Very common in the entire Papua region, someone told me that it's sinfull to shoot these birds thus their number is very high, I wish it was the case for many other birds that are on the blink of becoming extinct.

    This bird nested on the electric wire, you can easily see the nest behind the bird shaped like those wire-conecting device.

    catching the late afternoon sun today. I tried many different exposures not to blow out the hightlights but try and keep some detail in the black areas. I almost managed it.
