The photos on this Home Page are of the Australasian Darter.  The darter is a common bird  along the Canning River  They are stunningly beautiful birds and makes great photographic subjects.  Click on the Menu items to see photos of other birds in the region.

It is my pleasure to display the wonderful birds of the Canning River and City of Canning  in Perth.  It  is my hope the photographs will be of interest to bird-watchers and used as an additional resource to help identify the local birds. ​  If you see a species not listed on this site in Rossmoyne, Shelley, Riverton, Ferndale, Cannington or Wilson please let me know so I can keep the website up to date.  Bill Lambe
