I really like this first image. I got too close when trying to sneak up on these beautiful Plumed Whistling-Ducks. Sorry to disturb them. The original is full-framed 7360 x 4912.

Great BIF flock shot Russell............

The paperbark trees remind me of Hong Kong (where they are "exotics", obviously) but we can't match you for number of Whistling ducks !
Nice shots.

It takes me back to my last trip to Qld - a nice feeling on a grey winter's day in Melbourne!

It turned into a very artistic portrayal Russell. There's a very fine line that birds won't let us pass and it's not always possible to judge it perfectly is it?
