I was meeting friends for lunch, but that left the morning free for some local photography, so I headed to the Tempe Wetlands to see what was out.
I spent a very enjoyable two hours there. I photographed some of the usual honeyeaters –
New Holland Honeyeater
Yellow-faced Honeyeater
White-plumed Honeyeater
And some of the other birds –
Silvereye
Red-browed Finch
Spotted Pardalote
Reed Warbler
Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike
Welcome Swallows
Superb fairy-wren
Noisy Miner
The warm weather was bring our some of the reptiles. I have often seen Blue-tongued Lizards at the Wetlands, but had never been able to photograph them before. So I was pleased to find one enjoying the sun.
And a Water Skink –
