The local paper published two of my bird photos in today's edition! And they only referred to me as a "him" once (presumably because of how my first name is spelled--I get that all the time ?)

POLLOn Thursday I had a wonderful trip to Ballarat, Victoria. One of the highlights of the journey was being almost hit side on by a wedge-tailed eagle that took off 50 metres away from a paddock on my left. For a short moment, I feared that she was ...

Some neat birds I encountered while bird-watching, today. There's a female long-tailed duck; a killdeer; a pair of American wigeons; since ring-billed gulls; and my favorite shot of the day, a male kestrel.

I've been watching birds since my mom and nan introduced me to bird watching as a kid. I developed an affinity for that most elusive of birds early on, the Owl. Any other Owl People out there?
