More Moorhens at Buckley Falls

November 22, 2015 by Jade Craven Leave a Comment

Last week, I shared some images of dusky moorhen chicks I took at Buckley Falls. I wasn’t proud of the photos I took so went down there again 8 days later. My goal was to take photos of the chicks with the sigma 150-500 lens and hopefully get better detail.

The best laid places of mice and moorhens. I wasn’t able to find the family that I saw previously. I was able to get much better photos of a different family though. I’d say these chicks were around the same age as the other family.

Some of the photos are still a bit blurry. Still, I’m impressed with the detail on the wings and head. The parents were doing a really good job. Hopefully the kookaburra I’ve recently seen there doesn’t get to them!
