A few bird shots from recent holiday

[Marke]

Was up in Daintree again recently on my honeymoon this time :D
but managed a few trips out on a little boat with a friend who runs
birding tours on Daintree river.
The Cassowary is also a wild bird taken up in Atherton table lands
and not for the faint hearted.
Great billed Heron , Nankeen night Heron , Little Kingfisher, Azure kingfisher
Casa and Sun bird.

Beautiful shots. I've never seen many of those birds before. And, of course, congratulations appear to be in order! :D

All great shots Mark, but really favouring the sunbird though. Great detail.

I have been dabbling a bit in bird photography over the last year and it is certainly challenging. Thanks for sharing :thumbsup:

Thanks Andrew and yes bird photography is a challenge to say the least

Mark, some great shots there mate well done. I know myself how time consuming bird photography can be to come away with shots of this quality.
