Originally I thought this was an albino peacock…But have done some research and come up with this – “The White Peacock is frequently mistaken for an albino, but it is a colour variety of Indian Blue Peacock.” It was a very magestic bird and beautiful to see him fan his tail feathers.

I was totally in Awe as these beautiful birds flew overhead yesterday evening shooting in the Noosa Basin again.. I noticed them in the distance a few days back, with my earlier shots, and was determined to get these close. I didn’t manage to get too close unfortunately, but did snap this one. They come here in the evenings to hang out on a small dead tree. I will get these close one day soon :) Fingers crossed they hang around for a while. They have a beautiful “sing” call, rather than the other species of cockatoo seems to be more a “squark”.. Canon 50D, 400mm. Noosa Basin, Noosaville, Queensland. This was the last shot I managed to get with the 1/400 shutter, then most the captured were blurred due to low light. Available Large, best viewed large!

The Whistling Kite, an Australian native eagle, that can also be found in New Caledonia and New Guinea. Called the “whistling kite” because of the loud whistling call it makes, often while in flight. This one photographed on the edge of Lake Cooribah, Noosa Northshore, Queensland. They feed mostly on live small mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians, crustaceans, insects and sometimes dead animals or carrion. Like most eagles, they are the masters of the sky in soaring effortlessly and diving for the kill. This shot was just before a dive, he was applying the brakes as he spotted a meal. Canon 50D, 400mm. Available Large, and best viewed large!

I went by the airport today on my way home thinking I’d take a few pictures of some planes. I found this baby scissor-tailed flycatcher on the ground instead. His mother was bringing bugs as she could catch them (which wasn’t very often) to feed him. I had to stand in the heat a long time to get this picture, but it was well worth it.

Another of the wonderful creatures being mended and kept healthy by the good people at the Lathrop E. Smith Environmental Education Center near Olney, Maryland. Once back on his feet … er … wings … out into the wild he’ll go!! I love to hear them calling outside my house!! Based on the full size images that I have of him, I believe this to be a red-tailed hawk. From Wikipedia: “The Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) is a medium-sized bird of prey, one of three species colloquially known in the United States as the “chickenhawk,” though it rarely preys on chickens. It breeds throughout most of North America, from western Alaska and northern Canada to as far south as Panama and the West Indies, and is one of the most common buteos in North America. There are fourteen recognized subspecies, which vary in appearance and range. It is one of the largest members of the genus Buteo in North America, typically weighing from 690 to 1600 grams (1.5 to 3.5 pounds) and measuring 45–65 cm (18 to 26 in) in length, with a wingspan from 110 to 145 cm (43 to 57 in). The Red-tailed Hawk displays sexual dimorphism in size, with females averaging about 25% heavier than males. / The Red-tailed Hawk occupies a wide range of habitats and altitudes, including deserts, grasslands, coniferous and deciduous forests, tropical rainforests, agricultural fields and urban areas. It lives throughout the North American continent, except in areas of unbroken forest or the high arctic. It is legally protected in Canada, Mexico and the United States by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. / Because they are so common and easily trained as capable hunters, the majority of hawks captured for falconry in the United States are Red-tails. Falconers are permitted to take only hawks in their first year. Adults, which may be bred, are not permitted to be taken for falconry. Falconers prefer to train first year hawks, which have not been locked into uncooperative adult behaviors. / The Red-tailed Hawk also has significance in Native American culture. Its feathers are considered sacred by some tribes, and are used in religious ceremonies.” Image taken with the Nikon D40x and the 18-200mm vr Nikon lens on June 10, 2009.

Willy Wag Tail – Spectacles, Western Australia The Spectacles is a nature reserve. Bush land surrounds two lakes in the shape of a pair of spectacles. Wildlife was in abundance until the area was devastated by bush fire about three years ago, but the vegetation is slowly recovering and the native wildlife has started to return, including this little male Willy Wagtail. The Willie Wagtail is insectivorous and spends much time chasing prey in open habitat. Its common name is derived from its habit of wagging its tail horizontally when foraging on the ground. Aggressive and territorial, the Willie Wagtail will often harass much larger birds such as the Laughing Kookaburra and Wedge-tailed Eagle. It has responded well to human alteration of the landscape and is a common sight in urban lawns, parks, and gardens. It was widely featured in aboriginal folklore around the country as either a bringer of bad news or a stealer of secrets. Text about Willy Wagtail from Wikipedia Olympus E-410 Featured in the group – Earth Keepers – 23/09/09

A south eastern red tailed black cockatoo poses for some shots, he almost looks a little shy ! There are 5 subspecies of Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo in Australia. The South-eastern Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus banksii graptogyne) is only found in south-east South Australia and south-west Victoria. With an estimated population of about 1400 birds, the South-eastern Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo is in danger of extinction,which is why it is so important for breeding programs like those at the Melbourne Zoo to try to keep these guys safe now and in the future Information from Redtail.com.au Canon 450D / EF 75/300 lens
