Rainbow Lorikeet (Trichoglossus haematodus) offers colourful challenge.
Intermediate Egret (Ardea intermedia) looks lovely in early morning light.

Delightful selection of photos Tony - the lighting in all of them is superb.
ReplyDeleteLovely study of the crimson finch. Its colour is similar to the beautiful red cardinal.
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara: Thanks. Early morn starts so much easier this time of year, so more minutes with soft light. But wouldn't you know, just when I start finding Little Bitterns out in the scleria the rains come and my transect becomes too deep for comfort!
ReplyDeleteHi Terry: Cardinals of all stripes love rich reds, don't they?
