Passing by....

Strong gusty winds causing much destruction over North Canterbury and other parts of New Zealand. Trees have fallen and power has been out in some areas.
It's been fine today with a calm blue sky in some areas while shooting over the mountains was this creeping up behind me while I was out walking - nearly got carried down the road.

I really liked the 13 black swans just above the poplar.

A quiet Sunday, some photo editing from my break in Whakatane, no birds visited the feeder today - disappointed, I was all ready for some action and had spare time.

While the wind continues to howl, I wish you all a happy Sunday :)
