My Bird Photography

Getting the 'best photo' I possibly can has become a strong 'driver' in my photography. Knowing full well that 'there's always a better photo to be got' , the search goes on. . . The 'aesthetic' is so important in how I view my photos. 

Here are a few examples of just some of our beautiful ​bird life - mainly of the 'smaller dimensions'

Picture
#153 - GOLDEN WHISTLER


My Golden Whistler - singing his heart out...



Our island supports many bird species, so my selection is still incomplete. I hope you enjoy viewing 'captures' that I've spent many hours chasing! There's a story behind every one of them -  like how I managed to call the Golden Whistler out of the bush around our home by answering his call for a few minutes - until finally he appeared and presented himself  ideally sideways-on, in splendid sunshine, whistling his heart out to tell me in the nicest possible way that this spot was taken, and that I was just getting
​a bit too close to his territory!
