Bellbird in the hazels
At last, a sunny day after all that drizzle here in the valley.
After a I spent a lazy morning reclining healing, my parents arrived for lunch and to exercise the dogs for me. Taking advantage of the good weather, I put on some very baggy track pants (needed to go over the beast of a leg brace), struggled into some shoes and headed out on crutches into the garden with the 70-200 on the search for birdlife.
It didn't take long to find the usual suspects. Bellbirds have been plentiful in the garden this year, and today was no exception. I heard the chimes of this young korimako in the hazels and stood below him listening to his sweet song carry along the valley floor before capturing this cute portrait.
