Kookaburra for lunch

Hi All
Seems you can't have a lunch in the park these days without uninvited guests. this one, a Kookaburra proved a big hit among the large group of tour guests i had eating our bush food lunch. It even cheekily stole a piece of cheese from the table when we had our backs turned... the resolution is not great, i snapped this photo with my phone camera... have a good day.

Watch the kids...

Hi All
One of the nicest treats whist touring is when you come across a family of emu with dad escorting the little ones over the road. Unfortunately dad wasn't interested in rushing the experience and things could have ended in disaster had it not been for some quick braking.
In the bush, the male emu sits on the eggs and plays the key role of raising the young.
Unlike for most of us, this is one case where the female gets it easy...

The mighty wedgetail eagle

On tour we see a lot of wildlife in out travels. most of the time, usually, by the time you get your camera out, they have flown off. On this occasion though, there were 7 eagles feeding and they weren't going to let an approaching vehicle scare them off. We sat for a few minutes and collected some great photos of these magnificent eagles feeding and jockeying for the best parts of the animal. this photo was taken as this eagle was trying to intimidate another into moving over. It would have worked for me... they are pretty fierce when they want to be...

Who needs a holiday???

One of the greatest benefits of my job is that I get to go to places others dream about... and someone enjoys the fact that I have taken them there. Last year (and earlier this year) I was fortunate enough to conduct a tour to Birdsville in south west Queensland. It was GREAT!!! On the way, as we traveled up the Birdsville Track, we saw Brolgas nesting near the track.
It was pretty inspiring. We got a great picture of the male Brolga dancing for the affections of his female partner.
