Rising in a white cloud above the wetlands ponds, the water birds circle until they feel safe to land again. The ponds are regularly drained and the spoonbills and egrets find lots of tasty snacks in the mud that’s left.

About byronbackyard

Many thanks for checking out my photos, please feel free to give feedback! My wanderings in nature and observations of birds, particularly raptors, is what gives me great joy and constantly reminds me of the beauty and strength of life. My favourites are raptors, I love their freedom, grace, ruthlessness, pride, adaptability and flexibility and I learn much about parenting, protection and blind faith from them.
