Tidbinbilla Part 3 - Birds

[calissa]

The last installment of my New Year's Day trip to the Tidbinbilla Wetland Sanctuary. However, you can expect more photos because I went back yesterday with my sister and took just as many photos. ;_;



Sulphur-crested cockatoo preening.



Yellow-tailed black cockatoo. These aren't the greatest photos, since I was working at the limits of my zoom. But it's not often they're within range at all.





Male superb fairy wren.







Willy Wagtail



Pacific Black Duck in black and white.




Little Pied Cormorant (I think).



Purple Swamphen. Makes me think of dinosaurs.



Black Swan.



Welcome Swallows. I was pretty pleased with these ones.







George the Australian Pelican. He's a crotchety old thing. His partner, Mildred, passed away last year.

Stay tuned for more, once I get through the next 700+ photos...
