Couples Grasswren Grasswrens Pairs


EDITORS COMMENTS
Caught in the Act: The Elusive Lovebirds of Kimberley!". In this snapshot, we witness a rare and enchanting encounter between two Black Grasswrens - a male and female. These feathered lovebirds are exclusive residents of the vast sandstone gorges and scattered shrubs in the far north of Kimberley, Western Australia. Accessible only to intrepid explorers with 4WD vehicles, this hidden paradise has kept these grasswrens well-guarded for decades. Discovered back in 1901 but then vanishing until their triumphant return in 1968, they have since become an emblematic symbol of resilience and mystery. Bounding effortlessly from rock to rock, these agile creatures disappear into crevices beneath giant boulders before reemerging further along their territory. With each graceful leap, they leave us spellbound by their acrobatics. This particular photograph was taken near Little Mertens Falls on Mitchell Plateau – a breathtaking backdrop that adds even more allure to this already mesmerizing scene. Don Hadden's lens has perfectly captured the essence of these elusive birds as they navigate through their natural habitat. Let this image serve as a reminder that nature still holds secrets waiting to be discovered. So grab your binoculars and embark on an adventure into the heartland of Kimberley – who knows what other wonders await you!
