A recent weekend trip to Auckland saw us arriving in pouring rain and largely huddled indoors for the first day. The following day dawned bright and we decided a small expedition close to base was preferable to another day of driving so explored Onepoto Domain in Northcote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The domain has some lovely open grassed areas and a couple of ponds, one of which is a perfect venue for radio-controlled yachts. A flock of Rock Pigeons fly between groups of children offering food so can present flight image opportunities. Feral Pigeons don\u2019t have the best profile and are subject to a number of demeaning names but I have a soft spot for them having kept a loft of pigeons as a child. The joy of getting home from school and watching my birds fly is a very happy memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most interesting was a Kawaupaka\/Little Shag that was fishing actively with regular success. Reviewing the images it was clear that shrimp were the prey. This kept us busy for a while trying to get action images against decent backgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of the Onepoto Domain includes a boardwalk and a bushwalk offering a variety of habitats. A benefit of my recent nocturnal macro explorations is an increased knowledge and awareness of invertebrates. Exploring a nursery-web in M\u0101nuka along the boardwalk we found the female guarding her nest. This highlighted the fact that bird photography gear is not ideal for macro work but can achieve a result of sorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bushwalk yielded a weta resting in the sun which was a bit unusual to see. The bird gear again enabled a record shot. I must remember to add a macro lens to my travel kit in future!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A final pass of the ponds yielded my favourite image of the day. A pair of Warou\/Welcome Swallows were resting on some Casuarina branches in the shade. The soft light with a lovely background of reflected light on the pond with the Casuarina needles adding a hint of texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the primary aim of the expedition had not been photography, a walk in the park at Onepoto Domain yielded a number of photogenic subjects and a couple of pleasing images in the record of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
