This was not a good shot of the Black-fronted Dotterel, but he refused to cooperate, moving every time I got anywhere near him. Better luck next time I hope. The reflection looks OK though.
I had better luck with the Dusky Moorhens. They were far less shy and quite obliging.
This is a straw-necked ibis. We get them in our front paddock as well. He looks as if he has a definite purpose in mind and is striding towards it.

Sometimes those birds just won't stay still for a picture. Never mind about the dotterel though because the Straw-necked Ibis is a great shot.
ReplyDeletelove the last bird.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful handsome shorebird the dotterel is.
ReplyDeleteYour Moorhens are similar to our Mud Hens---well sorta.

Really awesome finds!
ReplyDeleteoh awesome finds.
ReplyDeleteHI Liz That last shot is not a Straw necked Ibis but a White necked Heron. You images are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI like the cute dotterel.. And the Moorhens are similar to the ones here. I do love the Straw-necked Ibis, cool bird. Great shots!
ReplyDeleteFantastic pictures, and a great reflection captured on the first one.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! I particularly love the ibis!
