To celebrate Bird Week 2025 (2-8 November) I'm posting a photo of a pink galah. This Australian bird looks for food on the ground, so this was a different kind of bird shoot for me as I'm usually walking looking up at the tree canopy.  This is a male galah as the female has pink, red or light brown eyes.  ​Galahs are very fast – they can fly up to 70km per hour. 

This shy swamp wallaby lives in the thick undergrowth of  forests on the east coast of Australia. It's is a small macropod marsupial.  Check out our 'On location' 1 minute video for a behind the scenes look...

Australian coastal areas are full of surprises.  Recently, I came across this beautiful Diamond Python.  This expert tree climber is difficult to see because it's perfectly camouflaged.  Check out the 'On Location' 1 minute video for a behind the scene look...

It's a good day when I get a shot like this... This Eastern Yellow Robin is only small but packs a punch when it comes to colour.

Up early to soak up the morning sun and check out the surf action on the Northern Beaches.

To celebrate Bird Week (14 - 20 October 2024) I'm posting this photo of a red-tailed black-cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus banksii) feeding on the seeds of a casuarina tree.

The spectacular Australian yellow Waratah (Telopea Speciosissima) and many other native flowers are in bloom at the moment. Enjoy spring!

Hibiscus flowers produce a plentiful amount of nectar, a sweet, sugary liquid which is a food source for bees. ​

Irrawong Waterfall - I discovered this waterfall in the suburb of Warriewood on Sydney's Northern Beaches. It was a great location with a rainforest and lots of birds 
I used a slow shutter speed to get the blur effect. 

The 3rd of May is World Koala Day.  Koalas consume 400-700 grams of leaves a day.  There are approximately 600 different species of Eucalypt in Australia, Koalas can only eat 10% of them.
