Rufus Whistler

Photos around Marian Valley

I was taking photos at Marian Valley for their website, which I am updating. Not going to share those photos here, but while doing so, I took some of the other things that took my fancy. Here are a few of them.

Wildlife

I would have liked to get a few more good photos of some birds, particularly the Rufus Whistler (I had help working out what it was). But they don’t stay still very long. But getting a good bird shot would not be half so rewarding if they did.

The Waterfall and Creek

I sat around for a while, taking photos of the little waterfall at different shutter speeds. You can see the difference in the effect if you compare the two images.

The Landscape

The walking trail around the place has a view at the top that is worth the climb, and the way down the forest that I was walking through is beautiful.

Plants

Just a few plants (I know fungi are not plants) that were good-natured enough, unlike the birds, to stay still while I took photos of them.
