I've been on BIBY since Sunday last week. I case you're all wondering who this Ninox person is who suddenly appeared I'll introduce myself to you.
I live in Melbourne. I've loved birds since I was seven (I used to hate birds. An eight month caravan trip around Australian changed that) I have a dog who is a Jack Russell x ???. My favourite hobbies are horse riding (I don't have my own horse...yet), bird watching, bush walking and taking photograph of nature. I am particulary interested in parrots, raptors, nocturnal birds and finches put love birds of any sort. I did an exchange in Germany for six weeks (that's where my love for owls sprung from) and discovered even more birds there (too bad it was winter there). When I get to uni I want to study some sort of environmental science and I want to become an ornithologist/ NP ranger/ involved in captive breeding programs (I haven't decided)
Welcome Ninox, hope you enjoy this site. Wow very impressive with what you want to do with your life, good luck with that. Hope to see more of your photos.
Thanks Wanda

Welcome Ninox, that's a great name you picked. I have a huge affinity for all nocturnal animals, including (top of my list) owls and nightjars.
Try Bunyip State Park for Sooty Owls, Powerful Owls, Southern Boobook and Australian Owlet-nightjars. A mate of mine lives in Seaford and goes there from time to time.
Cheers....
Welcome Ninox. I recently joined the forums as well and there is a great bunch of people here who will inspire you even more and help you along the way.
I was born to live and I live to die.
