EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Don Hadden, we witness a true culinary connoisseur of the avian world - DH-3714, also known as the Chestnut-breasted Mannikin. With its vibrant plumage and delicate beak, this little birdie is on a mission to satisfy its insatiable appetite for grasses at Mt Barnett in Western Australia's Kimberley region. As DH-3714 gracefully nibbles away on nature's green buffet, it reminds us that even our feathered friends appreciate a good meal. Found across northern Australia and some eastern areas near wetlands, these charming creatures prefer their dining experience accompanied by lush grasslands. With its distinctive chestnut breast proudly displayed, this Australian native effortlessly blends into its surroundings while leaving no blade of grass untouched. It's truly a sight to behold! Don Hadden has masterfully captured not only the beauty but also the essence of wildlife in his lens. This print serves as a gentle reminder that there is wonder all around us if we take the time to observe and appreciate it. So next time you're out exploring Oceania's magnificent landscapes or simply strolling through your local park, keep an eye out for our delightful friend - DH-3714. Who knows? You might just catch him red-chested and mid-meal!
