Thanks for sharing all these great pics! My favs are the crane, sulphur cockatoos, and the owl. LOVE THE OWL! So beautiful.

Glad you liked them! I'm going to keep an eye out for the wild flocks of 'toos - will try and get you a picture of them grazing on grass seeds

I might have an owl in flight picture somewhere - but they're silent and fast so its hard to get a good enough picture of them in flightb will have to see what I have!

It's so beautiful there. I would love being in Australia. The pics are sooooo beautiful. It's sad about the free feeding, but understandable. Not all people can be trusted.
