NZ Bellbird feeding on rosemary photograph.
| See I promised there would be an actual NZ wildlife photograph post soon and here we go. Its one from this years trip to Tiritiri Matangi Island. The bird is a Bellbird and its feeding on a large rosemary bush that grows outside the Tiri bunk house. If you stay overnight on Tiri (which I recommend) the bunk house is where you stay. The Bellbird or Korimako, (sometimes Makomako) is like the Tui and Grey Warbler an endemic NZ passerine. These beautiful green and black birds have a gorgeous red eye, which can just be seen in the photo. There song in theory is quite distinctive, although I often get it confused with Tui. Related NZ passerine bird photographs : NZ Pipit, Kokako, Tui. This is digital photography post #31 for 2010. Can't find something? Try the search box top left! Like my photography?

Landscape picture from Tiritiri Matangi Island, New Zealand at night.

Tiritiri Matangi Island landscape photograph at night.
| Something a little different again today.... except its similar to my last photo post. Another landscape photograph. This time taken at night on Tiritiri Matangi Island. This shot was taken from just the other side of the Tiri lighthouse photographed last year. I did have a completely different wide angle shot in mind for the light house this year, however once again the weather wouldn't play ball. So that plan will have to wait. I got this image while waiting for one of the many storms that came in at night to hit. I was hoping to get some more lightning photos. Of course the weather wouldn't play there either. Figures... Still I did get this little image. Its looking across the Hauraki Gulf towards the Coromandel. Some more Tiritiri Matangi Island photographs : North Island Kokako, Kereru, Pateke. This is digital photography post #30 for 2010. Can't find something? Try the search box top left! Like my photography? Follow me on twitter @glen_co_nz. |
