With the crazy weather in SA for the last couple of months it really has paid to make the most of any lull, so it was down to the local wetlands on Sunday afternoon.Though the light was fading it wasn't raining and there were still a few resident birds around. Hailing as I am writing this :-)
( Anthropomorphism time :-))
Pensive Australasian Grebe starting to show a little colour.

Inquisitive Reed Warbler
Focussed Swamphen
On guard Pacific Black Duck
Stunning photo's Rick great to see you made the most of the lull. You guys certainly have been copping it lately.

Stunning photos as always Rick especially in that light
Love the swamphen
Dont take life too seriously, it never ends well
Smart move to get out while you could. From what I've seen on the news SA has really copped some destructive weather lately but it looks like it's moving on now. Great shot of the Reed Warbler hiding away.

Nice shots, especially love the Pac Black photo, you must have been nearly in the water to take that shot.
Great eye level shots across the water ... lovely shots of all of them
Great shot, especially love the colours of the swamphen, and some nice captions. Not sure about the on guard pacific black duck though, he seems more like a cheeky fellow getting ready to flick some water at you or your camera
