Sorry, double clicked! :)
very nice photos Elle
Hi Elle,When I looked up the Jacky Winter,I noticed, they are found all over Australia,(almost!), meaning, I should have some in my garden? I'm not sure, if I have seen one though. They might blend in well? The two in the picture in my S&D, look a bit fifferent to the one in your photo,as they have a black line through the eye, and whitish brows. Also a distinct white line on either side of the tail. Still the same bird?

wow.
yuou are very lucky to see the glossy baack cockatoos and the grey goshawk and have shots of them Elle.
Cheers, Owen.
They are all beautiful photos. Wonderful flight photo of the grey goshawk - the wing feathers have come up beautifully
Thanks. Yes Owen1, I am very lucky to see the Glossy Black Cockatoos. In 10 years I had only seen them twice. They were in a group of about 10. Then, last year, they came back to the casuarinas in my area, in the Manning Valley region. But I was disappointed that there were only 3 this time; two adults and one young. Since then, I have seen them quite alot. I saw them last week but there were only the two of them; I don't know where the third one was. I got such good photos of them because they were in my neighbours tree and she quickly called me to tell me. I was so excited that I almost ran out in my pj's! lol I was lucky that it was in a bush so I could get close without them feeling threatened. :)
I happened to get the picture of Goshawk flying overhead because the magpies chased it out of the tree! That was the clearest photo I got of it flying :)
Nice Elle..... good variety and well done with the Goshawk too!

Great set of shots Elle, especially like the Goshawk.
Just like to say how much I enjoy all bird photos posted on the forum.
