I was messing around with photoshop & came up with this. I know its not the normal kind of shot we see on this forum, but im not normal. haha.. but i wanted to highlight this wonderful birds yellow colouring in particular its tail.. So im sorry if i have annoyed anyone by submitting this pic. no harm intended.
I have fond memories when i lived in a house up here in the blue mountains, where you would wake up in the morning & find them looking at you through the bedroom window. We had Banksias right at the window, it was great.. So maybe thats why im a bit?? passionate about them .....HAHA...
I like the way you've made those yellow colours come out.
I too have great memories of the Kookaburras calling and hunting on paddock fence posts in the morning. There was no shortage of cockies.
Cheers, Owen.
ta owen1, thought you might be ok with it.......yeah it true, their is certain memories of a bird that sometimes stick.
if your happy when your birding, flap your wings.
Ahh those childhood memories.... Mine are a bit different?
When I was a little girl, my mother and I often sat on the beach in the South of France, waiting for the sun to go down, and the pink flamingos to take off from the lakes, and fly over to the Camargue to spend the night. I will never forget their calls and the image of the formation of hundreds of those beautiful birds, flying into the setting sun.

Lovely image, Araminta. I was almost there during my viewing of the Tour de France on SBS. I loved the footage of the wetlands.
Love the photo of the yellow-tailed black cockatoos! The colours came out really well.
