    Birds of Sydney’s Urban Parks

    Continuing my trip to Sydney in October (Part 1 here). As I mentioned, I was on a work trip, so most of my bird photography was done relatively close to the CBD in the mornings and evenings. Royal Botanic Gardens I didn’t have a lot of success in the botanical garden. Most of the birds…

    Palace of Fine Arts in the Morning

    On sunny mornings the reflection of the Palace of Fine Arts creates a stunning backdrop for the black-crowned night herons that roost nearby.
