Birthday trip to Kereta, Coromandel

admin wrote in Beach, Coromandel, Gulls, Kingfishers, NZ Dotterel, Sunset, Waterfalls, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

Knowing that Autumn is just around the corner, I decided to have one last trip away to Kereta on the Coromandel Peninsula. Kereta Waterfront B & B is owned by my cousin Karen and her husband, Dave, and I have to say that as a bird photographer it just keeps getting better and better. The […]

December/January Road Trip – Part 6

admin wrote in Godwits, Miranda, Skylark, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

The Miranda Shorebird Centre was next on our list of places to go and was the first part of the return journey home.  Having travelled to Whangarei up the West coast via New Plymouth, we opted to come home down the East coast taking in Thames, Coromandel and Hawkes Bay.  When we arrived at Miranda of course […]

Making the most of the sunshine

admin wrote in Dabchick, Damselfly, Frogs, NZ Scaup, QE2 Park, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

New Years day, and after a nice long sleep in we decided to head out and make the most of the sunshine. We headed back to the Marine Wetland in the hope of getting some better images of the dabchicks and their young.  Unfortunately the chicks are quick old and no longer ride on their […]

Dabchicks

admin wrote in Dabchick, QE2 Park, Tui, White-faced Heron with 1 Comment .

I said I was going somewhere different and I did.  I ventured North to the Queen Elizabeth II park where a fellow photographer had said there was a wetland worthy of a visit.  Indeed it was worthy and I will go back again real soon!The main focus of today’s images is the dabchicks.  There were […]

Waiting

admin wrote in Birds, Gulls, Pauatahanui, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

When I head to the kingfishers I know there is going to be a long waiting period before I see them.  They don’t just rush out to greet me when I arrive, they do the opposite.  I sometimes sit in my hide for up to an hour before they come out to play. This is […]

The White-faced Heron

admin wrote in Birds, Pauatahanui, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

The sun was shining this afternoon and even though there were a few clouds about, I headed over to the kingfishers.  I waited and waited and didn’t see a single kingfisher the entire time I was there.  I did hear one call out a few times but it didn’t come down out of the trees.  […]

Ponds, fountains and fish…

admin wrote in Birds, Ducks, Petone Estuary, Spur-winged Plover, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

Yesterday started out promising – that is until I looked out the window.  The weather report had me believing it was going to be a fine day for photography and the truth was that it wasn’t.  It was overcast and dull with the sun peeping through the clouds from time to time. Being the optimist […]

Sometimes I just want to take a photo…

admin wrote in Blackbird, Hawk, Welcome Swallows, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

It doesn’t matter if it is a good photo or a bad photo, I just need to pick up the camera and shoot.  This usually happens after a couple of days on inactivity with the camera – I start to get twitchy if I don’t get my photo fix.  Today was one of those days.  […]

Hikoikoi Reserve – Petone Estuary

admin wrote in Birds, Gulls, Hikoikoi, Kingfishers, Petone Estuary, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

The last post was from Sunday afternoon, so now we go back in time a few hours to Sunday morning. We followed the low tide to Petone and parked up by the boat sheds. One of them is currently for sale and it is an enticing possibility – however if given the choice of a […]

Been shopping!

admin wrote in Birds, Caspian Terns, Kingfishers, Pauatahanui, White-faced Heron with 0 comment .

I haven’t been out with the camera yet today so thought I would post a few more from Friday night. The batteries are charging for the new camera (Canon 7D) but I only have one smallish card until the new ones arrive from Ascent on Tuesday. I am looking forward to trying it out as […]
