  • My last bird shot

    These all were down at the man made lake that the local council actually got right.
    I go there as I know ther are always birds down in the water and I was after the Spotted Crake which I know isn't the best bit these for me are real quick.
    By the time you get the zoom right its moved. I will nail it sooner or later.
    I also use this to learn my camera better.

    On this day it was on manual except for the focusing, that is another lesson I have to do.
    Bit I will get there with it. Bit on this day I feel I got more right than wrong.

    I have got the Australian Grebe but it might be Australasian Grebe, its late and I can't be bothered to look

    You seem to be getting the hang of the new camera Arthur. Well presented photos - keep up the good work.

        Thanks also but it helps to have a book with most birds in out area.
        But I bought a new one `its called Field Guide to the Birds of Australian by Graham Pizzey and Frank Knight. Its the 9th edition.
        It shows the area's where the birds can be on a map of Australia and they are drawing's with great detail in them.
        I think one of the better ones as its not a great bug book.
        And it was thank to Tatts as I won $55 and this was $49.99.
