Paint me like one of your French girls... Rainbow Lorikeets this morning & wrt the other day, there's a dusting of yellow pollen under the neck.

The Rainbow Lorikeets (Trichoglossus moluccanus) are loving the neighbour's African Tulip at the moment. Interesting grey colouration under the neck of one of them.

No, I haven't completely stopped shooting wildlife. Although, the Rainbow Lorikeet (Trichoglossus moluccanus) did have to come to me (or the neighbour's African Tulip at least).

Playing with some images from October 2021 and I rather like this shot of a Tawny Grassbird (Cincloramphus timoriensis), at Oxley Creek Common, Brisbane.

Silver Gulls (Larus novaehollandiae) are bloody judgemental for birds that steal chips. Wellington Point this morning.

I can't remember what type of bird this one is, can anyone tell me?

Love the fine mesh patterning on that lower middle quarter of a male Australian Wood Duck (Chenonetta jubata), but I'd swear this one is saying, "You keep photographing my missus's butt and I'll do you Jimmie!"

A cheeky Rainbow Lorikeet (Trichoglossus moluccanus) at Toowong in 2017. Probably my favourite image of this species. They are THAT full of personality. #birdphotography #nature #birdwatching #wildlife #wildlifephotography #birds #NaturePhotography #WildOz #Ozbirds #BirdNerds #BirdsOfMastodon #birding #birder #birdsoftheday #Mastodonnaturecommunity #conservation #biodiversity #scicom

Whistling Kite (Haliastur sphenurus) at Pumicestone Passage, Australia back in 2017 wonders if the photographer is tasty.

Kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) judgingly judges me from the neighbour's TV antenna back in January.

Australasian Darter (Anhinga novaehollandiae), may have bitten off more than it can swallow. Back in 2019 at #UQ Lakes.

Trillian, the Powerful Owl (Ninox strenua) fledgling shows the feet she has to grow into back in September.

Just to anthropomorphise for a moment: A happy Scaly-breasted Lorikeet (Trichoglossus chlorolepidotus) in the neighbour's African tulip tree back in May.

One of my favourite bird shots, despite basically being a mistake. I was shooting a landscape with a short lens and slow shutter speed when this Channel-billed Cuckoo (Scythrops novaehollandiae) flew past.

Male (shiny black) & female (to my mind the more interesting varied brown colouration) Eastern Koels (Eudynamys orientalis) taken at suburban Toowong in November 2017 when I was lucky enough to be there with camera in hand when they made a very brief stop over in the grevilleas.

Given it's been so cold in much of the Northern Hemisphere, I thought this archive image of a Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) framed by ice-encrusted branches at Mud Lake in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada in January 2012 might be relevant.

A Black-necked Stork (Ephippiorhynchus asiaticus) at Kedron Wetlands here in Brisbane back in May.

Pretty sure this is another floofy Australian Wood Duck (Chenonetta jubata) family of parents & 5 chicks at #UQ. Would have expected more feather development if it was the same family seen before.

#FirstSeenAndHeard Welcome to Sunday, #Bird Nerds of Mastodon! Early this morning the wonderful chortling of the Australian Magpie was my First Heard bird for the day. Less delightful was my First Seen, although one of the least obnoxious ferals, the Spotted Dove. What are you seeing in your patch? I would love to know what is right outside your front door, or in your backyard. #BirdsOfMastodon #WildOz #BirdsInBackyards #birdwatching #BirdNerds #Birding

Picture from wayyyy back in 2004 when the sunset at Rio del Mar Beach in California aligned so perfectly to create pure gold. A imm. Least Tern (Sternula antillarum).

Trying to find and follow all the #birdnerds from #bird Twitter, so if you are a friend/mutual follower from Twitter, let me know your Twitter handle, and if you want to be on my Mastodon directory page on TBE website. DM me if you want to 😀Did my video show up on #FirstSeenAndHeard in your timeline? Is #wildoz a thing here? Lol So many questions…

Proud mum and equally proud dad Australian Wood Ducks (Chenonetta jubata) each with part of their brood of 6 at #UQ Saturday.

#ThrowbackThursday Love this October 2006 3D-like image of a late-leaving imm. Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) from Mud Lake in Ottawa. Should have left already. #birdphotography #birdwatching #wildlife #wildlifephotography #birds #NaturePhotography #BirdTwitter #BirdNerds #conservation #biodiversity #scicom

I'm missing #BirdTwitter 🦅🦆🦜 Looking for the #BirdNerds and #BirdPhotographers on #mastodon. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I shall christen him/her "Puddin' Guts" (fancy body-shaming a bird...) Masked Lapwing (Vanellus miles) chicks at #UQ
