This blog is about what happens on the field trips that will occur throughout the course of the year whilst photographing birds on the Mid North Coast of NSW Australia. Migratory waders are counted locally and will be photographed and documented for the national bird count. The latest pics from these trips will be added to my portfolio on silvavaughanjones.com

This was the last trip to the Newcastle Estuary before the waders migrate.
This was the last time I was able to get out in the boat on the Hunter Estuary with Liz and Chris before the waders took off for their northward migration to Siberia and Alaska via the Yellow Sea, always a wonderful experience with so many waders. The Godwits and Pacific Plovers have started to colour up. I also finally got a decent Eastern Curlew shot, it’s taken all year to get that! The movement of the boat and the battle of ISO and speed in camera are ongoing.
