My fellow LCNP photographers don't seem to have a problem tracking this guy. He's also been spotted by many a kayaker. Alas, in the years I've been walking through the park, I've only ever spotted him a couple of times and only for seconds at that.  I'm on a quest to find him every day. Hmm, maybe I'll buy a kayak for Christmas! Well, that's it for now. I'm off to get food. I've run out again. I'd really rather be in the park shooting birds!  Stay well.  Nina _________________________________________________________________________ Official Name: Sacred Kingfisher -  Todiramphus sanctus,  Halcyonidae Location: Widespread Coastal Australia Habitat: Forest and Woodlands near water and wetlands Conservation Status: Secure For more information go to  BirdLife Australia _________________________________________________________________________ THE AUTHOR My Curious Camera is professional portrait photographer, Nina Beilby.

God Rays shine just before the sun rose Broke out of my routine and went for a mid-week sunrise this week. The light and colours are amazing at the moment, it's hard to resist. Also, being winter the sun doesn't rise until 7am which is completely reasonable not like the 4:30am starts during summer. As a portrait photographer, landscape shooting is new to me and I am learning something, well, lots, each time I go out.  So happy I did.

I hope they give you some too. Nina

  Just walking along the Lane Cove River Track from Chatswood and this guy popped down to say hi. Thanks to my new Canon 5R and its silent shutter, I was able to photograph him without frightening him. My old 1Dx used to make a shockingly loud noise scaring the birds half out of their wits. I love getting a shot of the birds back because this is usually where the prettiest feather patterns are. Well, that's it for now. I'm off to get ready for the theatre.  Stay well.  Nina _________________________________________________________________________ Official Name: Yellow-faced Honeyeater -  Lichenostomus chrysops,  Meliphagidae Location: Widespread from Queensland to South Australia Habitat: Forest and Woodlands near water and wetlands Conservation Status: Secure For more information go to  BirdLife Australia _________________________________________________________________________ THE AUTHOR My Curious Camera is professional portrait photographer, Nina Beilby.
