Bugs in the front yard [01126653859]
(M)(L)Monarch Butterfly
Lately in the afternoons, I've seen butterflies in the front
yard—they seem to like the zinnias—but been too lazy to actually
go out and photograph them. Well, I finally got around to it this afternoon.
I took a bunch of pictures, and ended up with a sore wrist from holding my
heavy 300mm telephoto lens for a half hour.
Click through to see my favorite half dozen photos from
the session.

What was supposed to be the final week of our journey was spent in
Dresden, visiting Ingrid's relatives. The weather was not as nice as the
rest of our trip, but we enjoyed seeing everyone and exploring both
familiar and new places. We also had some great meals, and had better
luck finding vegetarian food on this visit that in the past.

Canadian Rockies Panoramas [01313348226]
(M)(L)Cascade Pond
On this trip, I took a number of panoramic photographs. Click the "(L)" link for the truly huge, scrollable version of each panorama.
The panoramas were stitched (from as many as 20 images, or 1/8 of a gigapixel!)
using Hugin. This is a great—and
free—program that runs on Windows and Mac in addition to Linux; I can't
recommend it enough. When the images are decently aligned, it is a very fast
(and not at all fiddly) process to produce a very decent panorama.
Two days in Banff [01314325514]

Wildlife Habitat at Port
Douglas, a zoo of North Queensland animals, including a great variety of birds,
mammals and reptiles. There was plenty to see and do, and plenty of pictures
to be taken. We'd already seen many of the birds in the wild, but it was neat
to see them up close.

Healesville Sanctuary [australia/01354848353]
(M)(L)White-browed Wood Swallow
After Wilsons Promontory, we visited Healesville Sanctuary, one of the Zoos
Victoria sites. At Healesville, all the animals are Australian. The day was
overcast and lightly rainy, but not enough to interfere with our enjoyment of
the animals.
They had displays of wombats and Tasmanian devils, but the animals were not
visible when we went by. They also had a platypus on display, but the lighting
was too dim to be able to get a photograph. Too bad, as we never got a
platypus photo on the whole trip, though we did see them in zoos twice.
Zoos in Victoria [australia/01356653168]
(M)(L)Australian Pelican.
We started out the next part of our trip in Werribee, where friends live, and they took us to the Werribee Open Range Zoo, run by the Melbourne Zoo. There you can ride in a bus around the safari area, seeing plenty of mainly African animals along the way. You can also walk around other areas and explore other animals. They also took us to other sites in Werribee. The next day we wandered around the entire Melbourne Zoo, which is quite an amazing place.
Tasmania Sites #1 [australia/01356788362]
(M)(L)Cradle Mountain Walk
The first half of our Tasmania visit. The first part is all at Cradle Mountain where we explored many trails. This was the only truly cold day of our trip, but we still saw many beautiful places on our hikes, and wombats, echidnas and wallabies in the wild. There's also pictures here from the beautiful Cataract Gorge in Launceston.
Tasmania #2 [australia/01357266183]
(M)(L)The painted cliffs at Maria Island
For the second half of our tour around Tasmania, we went to Freycinet National Park, which was absolutely gorgeous. Had a great hike up to view Wineglass Bay, and then visited other bays and areas of the park. We also stayed not to far away at Windsong B&B. We then spent a day on the tiny Maria Island enjoying being away from people and cars. For the last day, we explored the Royal Tasmania Botanical Garden in Hobart.
Kingfisher Cruise [australia/01359943585]
(M)(L)Azure Kingfisher
We took a lovely cruise on the Murray River, between the border of Victoria and New South Wales, courtesy of Kingfisher Cruises. It was a fun trip exploring a shallow river area with a wide mix of birds.

(M)(L)Water droplets in the Tasmanian temperate rain forest
Here are more shots from Tasmania, this time from Jeff's camera in much more detail! The first set is from Cradle Mountain on our rainy, cool full day there, where Jeff found some cool rain drops and lichen. Then we visited the Tamar Valley Wetlands near Launceston and enjoyed a lovely walk. Finally, there are a few shots of neat insects from Windsong B&B where we stayed on the east coast of Tasmania.
Maria Island [australia/01364176339]
(M)(L)Sandstone carved by the sea and colored with iron.
We spent one of our last days at Maria Island, just off the east coast of Tasmania. It was a beautiful, uninhabited island, with tons of amazing scenery. I've narrowed down our pictures to a few of the best.
