These are great Michele. The Mynah has really bright yellow eyes. I like the Hippeastrum I haven't seen one that colour before.

Nice captures Michele, Love that last capture of the bird on the post and that first shot of the mynah bird, they are so different to our Mynah birds, thanks for sharing these captures, cheers Steve. PS: We miss Australia soooo much.

Thanks Steve, well it's not far away and doesn't cost much to fly over, you could "hire a caravan" and do the grey nomad thing around Australia.

Hi Micelle, yes we have seen the grey Nomad thing before, we have been there in the season when everyone heads up the coast and Wow it's really cool to see, cheers Steve.

This are all great shot Michele. They are just stunning. The bird shots are my fav, but all are amazing with the detail and clear images. Thank you for sharing.

What great shots you have provided. I think the second of the flower is the best.

Like them all Michele but the Lilly is my favorite. You seem to be able to capture with natural light what most people have to go into a studio to create

One of the things I liked the best about viewing all of them. Is envisioning the smile you must have had while taking them!
I would say, a job well done!
