This little sucker was flying around my feet when I walked, if I stopped it went away and came back a soon as I started moving again. The wind was blowing hard and it was obviously eating critturs I was kicking up. Very small and very fast and I took about 40 shots to get these two.

We've had the pleasure of a dozen or so Forest Red-tailed Black Cockatoos visiting over the past couple of weeks to feed on the Cape Lilac trees. They are a raucous bunch, but so wonderful to see with their flash of red on the tail :)

These are AMAZING!!!!!! Wonderful photos everyone.

That head on of the cocky CC How the hell did you manage that! It looks like an attack cocky. :laugh:

And the pelicans on the water, there's always something so tranquil looking about them.

I'm envious of the raptor shots too.
