This photograph of a Black-chinned Honeyeater was taken on our recent trip to Chiltern on 9 May 2024. It was taken at a waterhole where bird can be observed coming for a drink throughout the day. A this time of the year, the Ironbark was blooming and the most abundant birds are native honeyeaters. These bird can virtually be found everywhere!

This photograph of a male Superb Fairywren was taken on 18 Dec 2024 at Royal Park Trin Warren Tam-Boore. I like this shot because it features the bird in the foreground but more importantly, the habitat is portrayed in layers. Some will argue that the blade of grass in the foreground is distracting but I think it adds to the authenticity of image as it depicts the bird in its natural surroundings.

On 11 May 2024, during our recent trip to the Winton Wetlands in the North East of Victoria, I had the opportunity to capture photographs of an immature White-bellied Sea-Eagle in flight. Do you prefer the eagle with its wing down or up?

I was looking for a place to display my photographs. After looking at Facebook, Instagram and other Social Media platforms, I have decided that these platform offers little or no protection for the copyright of these images.
I was originally looking to decommission this site when I rebuilt my server. Given that I have a need to post my photos, I have decided to migrate this site to my new server. Apart from ebird.org, I will be posting the photographs that I find interesting to this site in the future. As a differentiation from ebird.org, I will also post other genre of photography on this site.
The photograph above was taken in the morning of Thursday 2 May 2024 in Royal Park. I like this photograph more than I really should. It is a photograph of an introduced species (Common Starling) occupying a nest box in Royal Park.
