Images by Christine Walsh

Ever since digital cameras became available I have been using them to take natural history pictures. I set out to see how many differnt species I could photograph and identify, and to try and understand how each creature fits into its given habitat. I made this website to display some of the things I've seen. The images were taken in various parts of Australia and noted in the labels. My identifications may not all be right, please dont hesitate to comment if you think i have it wrong

With their vibrant reb beak and charcoal black feathers these swans are really rather striking to look at.

Black swans are Australia's only native swan and are seen on wetlands throughout vic.(that is when there is water in the lakes! ) Some years there are thousands of blacks swans at Lake Connewarre and Swan Bay on the Bellarine Penisula.
