Wood Pigeon
Recently we had more wood pigeons (hemiphaga novaeseelandiae) around the house than ever before. I was just going to have breakfast on the deck when this one flew into a nearby kanuka tree, staying long enough to let me get my camera, and obligingly moving its head forward into the sunlight.
Birds are rarely as obliging for me.
Great!
I still haven had the chance of a good shot at a Wood Pigeon but I’ll persist!
