Feel the pain etched on this old twitcher’s face, stood for hours in the freezing cold by a sewage works in Kent in the vain hope of seeing a yellow warbler yesterday. Respect! #birding #dip

Deniliquin did not disappoint on my latest Birdquest Southern Australia & Tasmania tour! A true world birding Mecca. Everyone who is serious about world listing has to go there to meet the legendary Phil Maher eventually. Plains-wanderer ☑️ #plainswanderer #birding #birdingtours #australia

Heading north through Victoria we picked up some nice birds, best of which was the gorgeous Turquoise Parrot. Next stop Deniliquin! #birding #turquoiseparrot #australia #victoria #warbyovensnp #birdingtours

Day 2 of the Birdquest Southern Australia & Tasmania tour starred Superb Lyrebird. One of the most ancient song birds. Watching it digging under the tree ferns of the rainforest in Dandenong Ranges NP was like time travel. #birding #australia #dandenongs #lyrebird #superblyrebird #birdingtours

It was nice to start with a pair of owls on day 1 of the 2024 Birdquest Southern Australia & Tasmania tour. The giant boobook Powerful Owl glared down at us from a lofty perch in a park in Melbourne and the diminutive Tasmanian Boobook obliged for the cameras after dark on the coast.
