A selection of shots from a nice, slow, walk in the park yesterday afternoon.
Light was quite low due to an approching thunderstorm to had a play with som high iso,s
Also can somebody comment on stage of development od the Wren ie male,female,coming into breeding? as I'm always confused by the variety I see at different times
Cheers
Lovely photos Rick.
I can help with the Wren. It is a male SF Wren in eclipse. After the breeding season the male changes back into the non-breeding plumage. They only retain the dark blue bill and the blue tail. Dominant males , older than 4 years, can stay blue all year round. Although I haven't seen any on my property retaining their colours over winter.

I think M-L covered it.
That Yellow-Faced Honeyeater looks a bit sorry for itself.
Love them!
Very nice images.
Love the NHE's tongue, and the synchronised lorrikeets!!
