iltby Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 If you live in an area that has a reasonable amount of bird life, you could also try just setting up a small feeder on your balcony or wherever...we get so many king parrots, rosellas, lorikeets, cockatoos and sparrows at ours, especially in bad weather which I know a lot of us have been having lately. Have also just recently started getting a little butcher bird visitor who is adorable I took some photos of him today, will post them later on! Would love a proper ID on him aside from anything else.

redangel Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I am watching and loving this thread. Such great pics. Those horse shots are poetry! I have never done an action shot with my camera, thinking i might need a fast lens. I only have kit lenses. Great work everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love a proper ID on him aside from anything else. Hey me too! I've lived here for almost 12 years and just the last 3 days have I started feeding the butcher birds. they learn quick too. I took some pics of them today, not very good though. When I lived in Mackay many years ago I had pied butcher birds, they have the most beautiful clear flute like call and are very easily tamed, more so than these southern ones. It was the thing I missed most of all when I moved back South. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what I'm doing with my new camera at the moment I'm stuck on auto so have booked in to do a short course to help me out. I love the light man The horse shots are amazing, I loved them. really showed how beautiful and powerful horses are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabrador Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) I have to admit that I borrowed heavily from Terranik's imagination when I took this first shot. Then I expanded on it a bit. Edited June 6, 2009 by Pointeeblab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
