  12. So handsome

    So handsome

    Away in the distance Ken spotted a white blob in a tree. Neither of us could work out what it was through our bins, so thought I'd try with my camera on full zoom. Turned out to be a beauty of a Black-shouldered Kite (sometimes called Australian Kite). This was the only one I saw during the...

    Black-shouldered Kite

    This fellow was sitting on the end of a little jetty at Richmond Lake, Rockingham, Western Australia. So I zoomed in with my trusty camcorder for this strangely soft-focus-like result.

    Checking me out!

    I was out checking for eggs in the hen coups because the local Aust. Raven keeps pinching them from the nest boxes when I spotted the B/S Kite sitting quietly on the dead fir tree just above my head. I hadn't touched the camera for some months and this species was always a favorite of ours, love...

    I can't resist taking photos of these beautiful birds. We're very excited as a pair has started nest building. Our first breeding record at lake Claremont.

    Black-shouldered Kite

    I wanted flight photos and waited quite a long time watching this bird at rest before he/she finally cooperated. They hunt mice when our lake bed dries out in the summer. Autumn rains are late coming and we still have no water.

    After about an hour just resting and preening, the bird finally flew. He wasn't very cooperative and his was the best I could do.
