Those that follow me on Instagram<\/a> will know that I have recently been down south chasing birds with Edin on another leg of the #birdventurenz. Our main target was Rock Wren as they were one of the final species she needed to photograph for her book and she was working to a publishers deadline of early December. She had been due to join us on our trip earlier in the year when I managed to get some Rock Wren photos<\/a> but this plan had been derailed by a session of fieldwork so we were now working in a tight timeframe.<\/p>\n

We had booked 4 days on the Milford Road which I thought should have been a reasonable amount of time but we struck some unseasonable weather in late November so spent a couple of frustrating days getting nowhere with photographing Rock Wren.<\/p>\n

I am am so far behind in processing images with a lot of exciting photos from our September trip from Dunedin to Rotorua as well as from this latest mission to work through. I have also had a great time recently with Fairy Terns and a rare leucistic Fantail<\/a> up north but these are all going to have to wait for future posts. Hopefully a few days off over Christmas and New Year will give me a chance to work through some files. In the meantime here are a few photos of the unseasonable weather from Fiordland National Park and one to prove that we succeeded in our Rock Wren mission.<\/p>\n
