    #3 - My dog Charlie couldn't care less about the PB ducks, but what they leave behind seems to have some attraction to his sensitive nose.

    #4 - Singing Honeyeater darting about in a Callistemon bush. They feel safe in there where it's dense and nice and dark.
    There's heaps of these flying about and singing their little hearts out.

    I always enjoy your lake images Isac. It may not be a large lake, but it certainly has a good variety of birds visiting. My local lake on the other hand has been lacking variety of late and I'm forced to drive to more distant locations to find any out of the ordinary water birds.
    Just out of interest how far are you from the ocean/beach?

      Good to see the lake where you find the birds. Nice shot of the singing honeyeater. Another one I haven’t seen. It looks like they are found a bit west of here, but not on the coast.

        G'day Isac

        Another beaut set of images from your backyard lake - and the caption made me chuckle
        The 2x 'log' images showing the extent of the zoom are always beaut for comparison purposes (but mine goes a bit more than yours)

          It's nice that you enjoy my pics John, very much appreciated. From home to the ocean is only about 30cm.
          To Cottesloe and Fremantle 28km, Scarborough Beach about 38km.

          We are lucky with the number of birds and variety Alan. The honeyeater is Australia wide but more in the West.

          Thanks Phil - I really enjoy the lake, so peaceful and lots to photograph in such a small place. I do have the Canon SX-50HS which goes to 1200mm - so mines bigger than yours!

            Thanks Isac, I was only interested as I don't recall ever seeing a pelican image from your local lake.

              I've posted heaps of Pelican shots from our lake John. They are regular visitors and put on quite a show.
              HERE and HERE and even did a book about them!
