Birdlife: Kooragang & Hunter Wet Lands, Newcastle.

 

The ‘Bird Life’ captured in these images were taken on my ‘rest day’ during the NSW State Surf titles at Swansea Belmont. Advised to check out the bird life at both the Kooragang and Hunter Wet Land areas’.

I wish to credit Charles Dove for his wonderful help in getting me started in the photography of ‘Bird Life’.
