Birds, birds, birds

I still don't have the energy to write about my weekend away and birthday (I am properly middle-aged now, you know). I promise to do it on the weekend. In the meantime, please enjoy these pictures of birds that I took in the Waring Gardens in Deniliquin (except the first one).


An egret in the nearly empty Mulwala Canal

 These guys look like they mean business

More - but different - duck

Chubby duck

Unattractive Ibis

How do you like them feathers, eh? Eh?

This Corella was perched on the tree branch but just 
as I lined it up to take the shot, it took flight

Love the bird photos, but I think you were a little hard on the ibis. He is quite attractive in his own way.

Perhaps. It's mainly his beady little black eyes, set against his black feathers. There's just something a bit evil about it.
