Up, up and away

A nene takes to the air at Upolu, before heading away eastwards.

Thanks, Carol. Usually I just get a photo from behind when they fly away!

I’m happy when I get a flying bird in the frame, so this one was very pleasing.

So they can fly. I always get the impression that they’re like the Wild Turkeys around here and walk everywhere.

I think they’re like a lot of geese. They’re happy to walk, they love golf courses, but they’re excellent flyers when they want to.

What a shot. Perfect for a day of hope and optimism

I hadn’t planned it for that, but up, up and away is pretty much the only place this country can go after the last four years.
