Carlo's Victorian Wildlife Gallery

Rural Australia provides some remarkably good opportunities to photograph interesting birds and animals. This web page contains a selection of recent wildlife pictures of interest, especially bird life, and some habitats.

The Kookaburra is an iconic species in Australia. Its characteristic laughing call is distinctive and unique. Increasingly it is found in suburbia as well as its natural bush habitats (Image © 2007 Chris Mills).

The Galah hardly needs introduction to Australian visitors. Non Australian visitors will note that the term Galah is often used to label individuals who are loud and foolish. This ubiquitous parrot species is often regarded to be a pest in rural areas (Image © 2007 Chris Mills).

The King Parrot is an attractive species usually associated with subtropical especially rainforest habitats. Increasingly it is seen further south including these examples photographed in Victoria. The specimen to the right of the upper image is a juvenile which is only beginning to develop the characteristic plumage colours (Image © 2007 Chris Mills).
