Here is my latest photo gallery. I have taken a few bird photographs of late (while the bugs are in their winter slumber). The eastern cape area of South Africa is home to a diverse bird population - I have only scratched the surface with the images posted here and will look for other species to photograph. Avian/bird photography is new to me and I learn as I go along.
Blue-bellied (throated) lizard - I am really not sure of the scientific or correct name. These lizards lie on the rocks at the sea and seem to enjoy warm weather.
Stone Centipede - macro of its head and jaws.
Stone centipede - tape measure for size.
Common Emperor Moth.
Black Headed Heron - take off.
Burchells Coucal - was fortunate to find this bird sitting in the open as they are shy and reclusive and hide in the undergrowth. The bird is also called a Rainbird.
Crowned Lapwing (Plover).
Blacksmith Lapwing (Plover).
Bokmakierie - this bird has a beautiful call which the reference books refer to as variable. This photograph was taken of the bird as it perched/stood on top of my garage roof.
African Red-Eyed Bulbul - feeds on fruit, nectar and insects and is often found near water.
Red-Throated Wryneck.
Olive Thrush.

Just shows what the proper equipment can do for bird photography. Mine are normally blurred cause my camera isn't fast enough to catch them. Some great birds shots you have there, specially the one of the Burchells Coucal.
Exceptional as many photos as you suggested, I was very impressed by the Common Emperor Moth. Hello Zane !!!!!
Great shots again. The heron pic makes me green... I forever seem to be chasing them... never getting close enough! ;-)
Oh Zane, the photograph of the Black Headed Heron is awesome.
Well done.
Good wishes from Magda in Australia
