The above photo of the Spiny Cheeked H0neyeater was taken at the Australian Arid Lands Botanic Gardens at Port Augusta. It is a great place to view and photograph birds. For this shot the bird was only visible through an opening in the foliage. This is how it turned ot.
I was a bushwalker with the Watagan Wanderers and taught Abseiling and Canyoning. I organised and led many Canyon Trips which involved abseiling. I also organised many at home and overseas backpacking and hiking trips to Tasmania, New Zealand, North America, South America, Antartica, South and East Africa and China. Nowdays I travel Australia photographing birds and wildlife in their natural enviroment.
