Hiya, my name is Annette Sibson and I'm a bird photographer.
I live in Townsville, North Queensland and have been a keen bird watcher since I was very young.
I am now able to indulge my passion on a much higher level, with both time and better quality equipment available to me.
I'm a member of the Townsville Bird club and bird photography group. I enjoy the club outings and love to explore areas on my own.
My husband and I are fisher people, frequenting the local islands and reef, which opens up new areas for me to find exciting birds.
I probably should add that I'm a canon girl currently using an 80D with 100-400 ll. A combination that I'm loving, it's light enough for me
to carry for hours and will stand up to being in the boat and on the beach.
Cheers

hey Annette, welcome! Look forward to seeing your photos in the galleries soon

Hi Annette
Good to hear a little about yourself.
You live in a great part of the country, I love the birds of the northern tropics. With that handy equipment of yours, you can get some beautiful pictures.
Don't be shy to ask any questions about photography or editing, the forum has some talented people eager to help.
All the best with your photography.
Peter

Nice to meet you Annette or, maybe we have already met at the Ingham DPITB conference, your name seems familiar. We were treated to warm hospitality by your bird club with outings around Townsville before moving up to Ingham for the conference proper. We owe the Townsville birders plenty so if there is any little thing you think I might be able to help with, then please ask here on the Forum. Welcome and may the bird photography gods smile on you.

Hi, thank you for the welcome..
This is such a great site, stunning photos, great challenges..

cheers
