Australian Ringneck at the Red Cliffs Lookout

Australian Ringneck (Mallee)

I have taken many photographs of the Australian Ringneck (Mallee subspecies) during this trip. However, many did not turn out well. This photograph was taken on the last day of the trip (7 September 2024) during sunset at Red Cliffs Lookout.

Red Cliffs Lookout is an excellent location for bird photography in the evening. There is a resident pair of Singing Honeyeaters. One can also expect to see Spiny-cheeked Honeyeaters, White-browed Babblers, Red-rumped Parrots and Greater Bluebonnet.

If I had a few more days in this location, I reckon I can get decent photographs of these birds. It will have to be another trip.
