I’ve just added some lovely photos of a New Zealand pipit to my gallery. I had been trying to photograph a pair of blue ducks, but they didn’t want to cooperate. So, I turned my attention to the pipit as it went about its business searching for insects around the big stream boulders and came away with some images I was rather pleased with. One of the keys to bird photography is being adaptable.
I’ve also added some photos of western weka, the first I have of this subspecies. Weka are great birds to watch, and as they are now rare throughout most of their former range, visiting one of the places where they are still relatively common was a treat. It was also interesting to see some people blatantly ignore the numerous signs asking people not to feed the birds!
I have a lot more image sorting and processing to catch up on, and hope to have lots more added to the site before too long.
