Common Tern
Charadriiformes

Some documentary photos made ​​on the breeding ponds is the starting gallery of the home tern. If the terns do not leave these ponds, you can be certain that there will be changes in the interior of the gallery. So far, the ones on my website represent this species. As befits a tern, it has an incredible wingspan, almost one meter in comparison with its body weight, which is just over 100 grams.

Common tree snake
Reptiles

The only snake I managed to capture in Australia. We did see even some bigger ones on the road, but they were dead (collisions with automobiles). Despite the fact that it is a tree snake, it allowed us to take a picture of it on the road and during an intermittent rain. Snakes are not easy to photograph as regretfully their lengthsome corpses will never be completely in focus.

Dobre
Common wallaroo
Mammals

 It is much smaller than the eastern grey kangaroo and is only half its weight. It inhabits almost the entire territory of Australia apart from its southern regions. Its reproduction cycle resembles that of the grey eastern kangaroo. The common wallaroo is resistant to lack of water. He can dig the ground in search of water. Unfortunately, it is a rare species of animal, as I met it only once. That is why there are few photos of it in my collection.

Common Whitethroat
Passerine

I wish the Common Whitethroat co-operated better than the Common Grasshopper Warbler and the European Stonechat on the May morning of 2014. It kept at a distance and the gallery, as a result, is not as impressive as the galleries of the other two species. Still, it is a new species in my gallery and it will be expanded in the future. The Common Whitethroats have the wingspan of some 22 centimeters and the weight of about a dozen grams.

Common Wood Pigeon
Columbidae

It is a large pigeon. Its weight can reach 0.5 kg, with a wingspan of about 75 cm. It is quite easy to photograph. Although it keeps a certain distance from a human, it feeds on the ground and has quite a large size, which makes it a good object to photograph, especially that more and more often it can be found in urban areas, in parks and gardens.

Coppersmith Barbet
Piciformes

My attempts to capture Asian barbets in Thailand ended in a complete failure. I didn’t manage to take a single satisfactory picture of any of the 4 barbet species which I photographed. They would always appear on tops of tall trees, what is more, there was always sky in the background and even converters and framing did not help. The distance was so huge that I wasn’t able to take good quality photos. Asian barbets do not belong to large birds. The length of their body is about 20-30 cm. They live in Asia south of the Himalayas.
