This photo of a Bush Curlew (Burhinus grallarius) at Tully Heads in N Queensland was taken with a vintage Minolta Rokkor 135mm telephoto lens which I found in an Op shop - and which is at least 50 years old. Completely manual, but it works well with my Canon R10 […] [Original post on mastodon.au]
Updated. This church is actually closer to Tully than Ayr.
Church in the sugar cane fields, near Ayr, N. Qld. Canon R10 with TTartisan manual 10mm f/2 lens. #canon #photo #photography #landscapephotography #Australia #monochrome #blackandwhite #darktable #australiangothic
Updated. Location is Tully, Qld, not Ayr. It sat among the cane fields of the wet tropics, not entirely abandoned - as it was clear that someone was still managing the grounds.

@Coolmccool Neat. Nice photos. *Nyctemera baulus* is quite a bite paler and stripier than our *Nyctemera annulata* (mokarakara) in New Zealand. https://flic.kr/p/DiVJXj #mothodon #nz

CoolMcCool@coolmccool.mastodon.au.ap.brid.gy · last mo.Little yellow butterfly which I see often up and down the east coast. Usually always moving and quite shy, so hard to photograph. Captured with Canon R10 and RF100-400 lens. Seen in Clairview, Qld. #nature #photography #australia #insects #macro #wildlife
@Coolmccool Galahs were the first birds I ever saw feeding their young. There was this super loud bizarre sound, and when I eventually saw where it was coming from, I found a Galah parent regurgitating for their kid. #birding #WildOz
These two young Galahs were quiet when photographed, resting between feeding visits from their parents, but were usually atrociously noisy. Seen near Bowen, Qld. #birds #nature #photography #australia #wildlife #parrots
