Joanna HolmanI’ve missed seeing my Tawny Frogmouth buddies now that they are in less predictable locations outside nesting season and its dark as soon as I finish work so I have less time to look. Was lovely to find one group today. Looks like one of the kids from last summer’s clutch decided they’re not ready for independence and followed the parents to their winter tree!
Also captured in yesterdays bird photoshoot, this cockatoo with unsettlingly good model pose

Ewen Bell 📸One more from the Gang of Gang Gang I saw yesterday. Been working inside today so haven't had a chance to chase more birdies yet. Maybe this arvo. It's such a treat for me to indulge in wildlife and a telephoto. Not my usual thing.
