The Kestrel that I mentioned yesterday spent all night roosting on the window above our front door. It flew off this morning but was struggling. It spent an hour sitting on our 4WD posing. I am pleased to say it soared off to rejoin the three other Kestrels.

#birds #birdsofprey Wildlife on your doorstep. Literally.
This female Nankeen Kestrel is now roosting on the window above our front door. It has been hanging about all day, not sure if it is due to the highs winds, hail and cold weather we have just had or not? We usually get three nesting pairs

#nikon #birdphotography Nikon Z6iii

The Nikon Z6iii has a new software upgrade and now features bird detection. Is it a bird is it a plane.....

What with this crazy world we now live in, I think a lot of us are turning to nature. Nothing beats walking out of the house getting amongst it with my camera to see what wildlife I can find.

Little Raven flying home to roost at sunset the other evening.
I was sitting on a log trying to capture some Welcome Swallows flying over the dam but it got too dark so I pointed my camera to the only patch of light left.

Canโ€™t image that they are the fastest bird to take off and get out of the way ?

Very different to the Robin that I grew up with in the UK, the one that we all saw at Christmas even if it was on a card. The male Red Capped Robin, native to OZ made an appearance yesterday.

I've just brought a box of vintage glass slides from an auction and dusted off my trusty old Epson V700 from the cupboard and it still works.
So far I have been unable to find out where these two Plumbers were from

This has to be the hairiest Kangaroo that I have ever seen. He lives up in the ranges and judging by his ears he has been in a few battles over the years.

And with two furlongs to go we have Jumping Jacky Flash in the lead. She's carrying extra weight with a jockey in the pouch cheering mum on.

What many lovers of art don't realise is just how much Salvadore Dali influenced the average South Australian Farmer.

Just Look up.

The Gum Trees in our Dam Paddock were a little damp this morning but they looked rather beautiful against the lifeless sky. Finger prints or Broccoli anyone? Now if only I could Linocut.

The local Kangaroo family are happy to pose for me as they hopefully realise that is I that is putting out Roo Food for them. They have been struggling a bit just lately what with the drought and lack of food. In fact some Farmers have been culling them. I find that quite sad!

@stephenmossauthor.bsky.social It was a case of a quick drink and a bite of something to eat down at the local watering hole for this Welcome Swallow. I just sat on a log near the dam in a paddock over our back fence and snapped away with my Nikon
