Look carefully and you can see a duck attacking the one taking off, you can just see the top of its head. Tevan Swamp, Ballina, Northern NSW.

Some images from Ballina NSW, including some roadkill. Back in the day when you could travel in Glady’s Gulag.







A few visits to the Lismore Rainforest Botanic Gardens has yielded more bark images. Plenty more to come.
The Doc will probably leave Ballina tomorrow and return to Sydney.







The Doc could not get close to the Red-backed Fairy-wren, even in full camouflage gear. It turns the images cropped nicely, so here are two images.


The same bee-eater and perch at Lennox continues to deliver. From today, enjoy.



Not the favourite bird of bee-keepers.



Map of the recent birding trip.

A long day trip to Tenterfield yielded a few images. Plus a cygnet from Byron Bay.








A Beach-stone Curlew and Masked Lapwing.





Bee-eaters dig a whole in the sand in the ground, this time on a fire trail. They catch insects and come to this perch, then they fly down to the nest on the ground. The nest looks like a large ghost crab hole in the sand.
