Lyn Steele, Last Call For Drinks (ANIMALS 2026)

This photo of five Little Corellas gathered on a dead branch was taken late in the evening along the Barwon River in Winchelsea. The background is already in deep shadow, providing a strong contrast against the white birds that have stopped for a final drink before heading to their evening roost. Corellas are highly social birds and the flocks at Winchelsea are deafening as they gather before settling for the night.
