Another lovely resident of Karara Rangelands. This is (I think!) a western Bearded Dragon and it came out to enjoy the late afternoon sun. As always, it really helps to get down level with small subjects so I came back to camp with a generous sprinkling of WA red dirt on my belly :) #nature #lizard

I LOVE that - and you are way better at drawing than I am. :)

haven't done much birding recently - but this weekend made me super happy. A trip to the Karara rangelands found me a little family of Pink Cockatoos (previously major Mitchell cockatoo). They're often really shy in the wild so getting to spend some time with them super close up whilst on the ground foraging was a rare treat.

2026-04-26T06:11:23Z

When you spend almost 2 weeks unsuccessfully searching for a particular animal an image like this - the suspense of her emergence from the shadows, the partially obscured eye, the glints of hallelujah gold on her coat - all express the nature of the beast so much better than the "better" images where she is out in the open. It's so much more fun when you have to work for an experience. #leopard #naturephotography #wildlife

Woodland Kingfisher. We could hear these guys calling to their mates at almost every bit of woodland adjacent to water, but they seldom came down to eye level. This pair was very agitated at the presence of a a large monitor snoozing in the bush and they came down to yell at it - and lucky for us - do a bit of displaying as well. #birds #birdphotography

Leopard No. 1. She had a kill in a tree but we couldn't find hide or hair of her until we were just about to give up - that's when she casually strolled behind the vehicle - and into thick cover where we had to peer through little gaps in the branches to see small pieces of her at a time - like a spotty mosaic. It's not that she was worried about the vehicle (we saw her very close and very relaxed later) I guess it was just a nice cool spot on a warm day.
