some Taranaki views
I like this photo, a bit out of focus as the camera focused on the fence.
Logs ready to be shipped off shore.

signs of the season
They say that 'One swallow does not a summer make'.
I wonder what these swallows are trying to say!

gulls on an island
We went to New Plymouth today and stopped at some of the lookouts.
The water was such a lovely color in the sun, but the photos didn't even come close!
So, I will show you one of the Sugar Loaf Islands and the gulls on hanging out on it.

feathered friends
Every morning, rain or shine, they sit on the fence and patiently wait for me
to put out some birdseed on the driveway.
The male chafinch hops around
on the front porch rail when he's hungry.
Finches
Out in the paddocks, I hear plovers who make their nests on the flat fields
but haven't got any photos.
And the heron regulars have been to the water trough but the photos
didn't turn out. I did get this pair of paradise ducks taking a rest.
The kingfisher that hangs around the house gets
pretty close, enough for photos.
The skittish starlings are building a nest in our garage, I think.
The blackbirds are really skittish, too, and fast!
And then there is the elusive hawk that I call Twitchie.
With all the time I spend trying to get photos of him, I
usually come up empty. Then I noticed him land a few paddocks over.
And most of my shots of him overhead aren't very sharp, so I
was happy to get this one.
