ERICACEAE Astroloma glaucescens - a hidden gem in an open banksia woodland

In the land of the Yued people from the Noongar Nation - Mogumber

My first experiment with focus stacking, this picture contains 23 photos at different focal points with a very open aperture, so very small sections are sharp in each individual photo and the background is a very soft blur.

WE ARE KILLING MAJESTIC BARN OWLS!
I cannot express the frustration and sadness that seen this dead Barn Owl made me feel while tears were coming out of my eyes... 🦉
I work outdoors in the conservation field and for the past month and a half my small team and I had found 6 dead Barn owls and 1 possible Brown goshawk around 1 council. Today taking a walk in shenton bushland I found one more Barn Owl... this death are not accidental or natural, these birds are dying from secondary poisoning as they eat the sick mice and rats poisoned with cheap and nasty poisons that they stay active even when these animals die.
- [ ] Please people, first generation rat poison where no harm is caused to birds that eat them are available in stores and might be free from your council.
- [ ] Sign the petition from Birdlife Australia for Bunnings to stop selling Second Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticide (https://www.actforbirds.org/ratpoison?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0XXo6jB4tBMcoPx2rMM_9l-ubAuKg3uFnIiXRYR7ljWUGFAZD6CJo2VwQ_aem_AdBQHlqbyebtd-IgFcrHYFta9_aaMciAFhJSo0OWeo0XMN8TGJOWbX2IdOwMRBZLUxltjyYERW4qdr4MTZLVQZn7)

A beautiful silhouette of a Little Black Cormorant croaking perched on a low branch.
I took this photo late in the afternoon at Herdsman Lake, facing the golden glow of the suns setting on the west…

These are the three stages of the iconic Australian Grass Trees flower spikes.

From right to left you can see the spike with some of the flower buds about to open, then the ones in full bloom and the last one, probably from the year before already seeded and started to decompose 🐛...
There are so many interesting facts about these plants. One fact that caught my attention is that the flowers on the spike usually start opening in the sunniest and warmest part first, and because we are in the Southern Hemisphere that means the first flowers to open are facing North... natures Compass 🧭 😍

A Gull Billed Tern in the middle of the WA Outback, wandering around a lake that fortunately was full at that time of the year.
It was amazing to see these birds that we always relate with the ocean, that far from it 😍

A little Crested Pigeon posing for the camera on top of a sand pile.
Thanks to the sun setting I've got those beautiful calming and warm colours that enhanced its beauty.

Sipping on my favourite nectar... did you know that many of the Australian native plants have evolved over the course of the centuries to be pollinated by birds.
These is very special in Australia, dew to its low number of native bees, plants needed to adapt for the flowers to pollinated by someone else, as it is the case of this Red Wattlebird about to insert the long bill and tongue that can extend well beyond the tip of the bill, and is divided at the end to form a brush-like structure with over a hundred bristles that soak up nectar!

ISN'T IT FASCINATING!!!

Just when I thought I was not going to be able to see any Southern Emu Wren I heard their distinctive call that I was playing to myself for so long to get use to it, that similar song of the Fairy Wrens but much higher in tone 😍.
It was taken the last morning we were staying in Albany at Mount Clarence before we head back home to Perth!

Adenanthos cuneatus, also known as coastal jugflower, flame bush, bridle bush and sweat bush, native to the South Coast of Western Australia. Beautiful with their wedge-shaped lobed leaves covered in fine silvery hair, and even more over summer when this reddish new growth occurs. The single red flowers are insignificant, and appear all year, though especially in late spring and many honeyeaters are attracted to them.

I took this photo in Albani while chasing some beautiful Western Spinebills and hoping they were going to stop there.
