Kingfishers, Dollar Bird and Magpie-lark

[wigz]

1. Sacred Kingfisher. A bit too far away really but detail looks ok.


2. Sacred Kingfisher #2 in a different part of the park. A bit closer to this one but the light is a bit harsh.


3. Sacred Kingfisher - same bird again.


4. Dollar Bird. Also a bit too far away and I wasn't going to push through swampy long grass to try to get closer.


5 Magpie Lark on nest. Mix of sun and shade on a black and white bird made for difficult light.

Thanks Mark, they are beautiful little birds.

Agree with Mark about the Kingfisher although I would be happy to have got any one of them. The pose in No.3 just makes it my pick.

[wigz]

Thanks AlfandBen, #3 is my favourite here too

[David_MC]

Stunning shots. The pose in #3 makes it my favorite.

Thanks David

Looks like #3 is the winner here Alan. All very classy images with great detail for such long shots.

[wigz]

Thanks Isac.

[HansE]

Looks like it is unanimous for #3 Looks as if it was profesionally posed.

[wigz]

Yep. It allowed me to get closer than usual and helpfully gave me some good poses.

G'day Alan

I'm okay with all of them - and the 'on the nest' image is more than 'ok' as well
