It is my pleasure to display the wonderful birds of the Cannng River and City of Canning. 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.
I have had a keen interest in birds ever since I was a boy growing up in Perth and badgered my parents to buy me books on birds for birthdays and Christmas. I was also passionate about racing pigeons - and (to my eternal shame) was a keen collector of bird's eggs from the local area. These days I think of myself as a conservationist and I am a member of Birdlife Australia and a local environment group - CRREPA.
In this project, I undertook to photograph as many of the local birds within the City of Canning, as I could. It has been the perfect way to combine 3 interests of mine: walking, photography and nature.
Despite my long standing interest in birds, I am very much an amateur with much to learn. If you see any mistakes on the web-site please let me know.
