Field ornithologist based in South Australia, with a particular focus on threatened terrestrial species. Birds are my primary passion and field of expertise, but I have an adoration for tetrapods of all shapes and sizes, and a fascination with Hymenoptera and various other arthropods.

I currently use a Canon EOS 7D Mark II with EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM and EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM (the latter often with 1.4x extender), and occasionally my iPhone 13 Pro.

Feel free to ask for clarification on any IDs I provide, or tag me in tricky Australian bird observations.

First records for SA (to my knowledge) that I've found:
Gasteruption mirabilifemorale
Hylaeus ruficeps kalamundae
Megachile macularis
