Incredible bird photos Carole, and those black swans, how lucky you are to see them in this number. I am always in awe of them whenever I have come across one or two when on vacation. I also LOVE your header photo :)
thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
What a handsome heron .... beautifully captured Carole with the light falling across.
ReplyDeleteThat's such a magnificent Heron! I've never seen one of those before. The Black Swans are gorgeous. Love the red eye on that Teal.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of all the birds bur I especially like the group of black swans swimming together.
ReplyDeleteYou can't get better pictures than black swans they are wonderful birds.

ReplyDeleteI like the Chestnut Teal and his red eye.
ReplyDeleteSuperb the Herons, and Black Swans and the middle one, what is it's name?
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! I love the Black Swans and the pretty White-faced Heron! Great shots!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous heron shots! That's a beautiful bird! But so is the Teal. Nice feather pattern. The Black Swans are so striking!
ReplyDeleteWonderful images, Carole.

So regal looking.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful Heron shots Carole! Black Swans are such an elegant bird!
ReplyDeleteCarole, wonderful series!
ReplyDeleteThey're all gorgeous, but I'd love to sit and watch that Chestnut Teal for awhile!
The black swans are awesome but so are the heron and the teal!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of the herons and black swans.
ReplyDeleteVery well done, Carole.
That's a new heron for me Carole. You caught the white around the face very well, otherwise it would indeed be very similar to Grey Heron.
ReplyDelete3 lovely species, lovely post
