Birds, Birds, Birds

A collection of birds shot in Singapore - wetlands, lakes & reservoirs, parks, natural reserves, Jurong Bird Park, etc. - Thailand, China and elsewhere. The birds are from Asia, Oceania, South America, North America and Africa. I'll continue to add to this gallery, so stop back again!

A number of these photos have been published; some are used in zoos, bird parks and elsewhere on wildlife & avian websites for reference and in print. I hope you enjoy the photos of these marvelous creatures, as much as I enjoy capturing & presenting them.

I should have commented on this gallery sooner, but wanted to wait until I could view the entire gallery by slide show. Each shot deserves commenting, but what a task that would be! All are well photographed, cropped and processed. Thanks for sharing, and I'm sure many more will come. Thanks!

Korsh Ararat		27-Dec-2006 17:26
The Kingfisher Could you have heard the kingfisher scream and scold at me When I went this morning early down to the smiling sea! He clamored so loud and harshly, I laughed at him for his pains, And off he flew with a shattered note, like the sound of falling chains He perched on the rock above me, and kept up such a din, He looked so fine with his collar snot-white beneath his chin, And his cap of velvet, black and bright, and his jacket of lovely blue, I looked, admired, and called to him, "Good morning! How do you do?" But his kingship was so offended! He hadn’t a pleasant word, Only the crossest jargon ever screamed by a bird. The gray sandpiper on one leg stood still in sheer surprise, And gazed at me, and gazed at him, with shining bead-black eyes, And pensively sent up so sweet and delicate a note, Ringing so high and clear from out her dainty, mottled throat, That echo round the silent shore caught up the clear refrain, And sent the charming music back again, and yet again. Then the brown song-sparrow on the wall made haste with such a song, To try and drown that jarring din! But it was all too strong. And the swallows, like a steel-blue flash, swept past and cried aloud, "Be civil, my dear kingfisher, you’re far too grand and proud." But it wasn’t of any use at all, he was too much displeased, For only by my absence could his anger be appease. So I wandered off, and as I went I saw him flutter down, And take his place once more upon the seaweed wet and brown. And there he watched for his breakfast, all undisturbed at last, And many a little fish he caught as it was swimming past. And I forgot his harsh abuse, for, up in the tall elm-tree, A purple finch sat high and sang a heavenly song for me. Korsh Ararat

Thankyou for sharing.

benz		31-Oct-2006 10:53
hiii this is a very beautiful collection of birds. I actually saw this collection when i was in a very bad mood.It really trigerred my thoughts and made me comfortable . Made me more joyous seeing them.But i would have one small comment, if more pictures of the birds flying freely in the vast blue sky were also included it would have been great.

We have been attempting to identify an escaped Leafbird variety in my mother-in-laws Garden near Reading in England. This gallery has helped tremendously towards this, although our Birds plumage is duller than the images shown and it's colour is more mottled and less distinct; however this gallery contains a very stunning and beautiful collection of photographs.

Hello doug! I was so amazed with the pix u've taken! there are all wonderful! i also have collection of photos of birds when i did my thesis with birds. it is so nice to know know that some people appreciate the beauty of nature! keep it up!

Pat		09-Oct-2004 23:21
Hi Doug....I am so impressed with your photos of birds....you have captured personality as well as beauty. As an artist, I wonder if I might use some of them as reference photos for some of my paintings. Keep up the wonderful work! Pat

Love the trogons. I think they're actually Blue-tailed Trogons (Harpactes reinwardtii). Regardless, those are two amazing photos. Good job :)

Doug J		03-Oct-2004 09:29
Thanks for the kind comments Marsha, I’m pleased that you liked these bird images. Capturing & sharing nature and the creatures with which we share our world is both a challenge and rewarding experience.

Marsha		29-Sep-2004 05:40
Mr. Doug Janson, I think you have lived up to one of my favorite sayings: "Be brave enough to live creatively. The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. You can’t get there by bus, only by hard work and risk. And by not knowing what you’re doing, what you’ll discover will be wonderful, what you will discover will be yourself." —Alan Alda Through your incredible photography of birds you have brought such beauty to my eyes and so many others, that I have cried with joy at their beauty. I view your photography as an artistic accomplishment. Birds are such here then gone creatures that can be viewed for such brief moments in time, their special colors and forms briefly viewed, linger in the mind and rest in your soul. Your photos stay in view and remain in my heart. Thank you. Through the imagery of your bird photos and their composition, you have given me many windows of artistic vision, and hope in a very trying month of challenges and troubles. Thank you. Sincerely, Marsha

Doug - thanks for introducing me to your website. I am taking a break from work to view the beautiful photos you have taken I have never known birds can be that beautiful. Your Storks in Flight is awesome - Charlotte

Hi, Nice pics... The pics of the African crowned cranes are that of the common East African species Balerica regulorum and not the (Black) West African species B. pavonina. They differ in size and shade of grey, the West Africans are dark enough to appear black...

John Hannan		17-Jun-2004 04:49
Fantastic photos. I just got back form Singapore and visited Jurong Park and could not identify many of the photos of birds birds I took. With your photo's I was able to figure out most of them. Can you recommend a book or a site where I could figure out the rest. John Hannan

Christine Kumar		16-Jun-2004 23:42
While all your photos are stunning, the pix of the bee-eaters and barbets just totally blew me away. These are some of my favorites species of birds. Well all passerines really - true confessions. These smaller birds are so hard to get excellent shots of being they are so active. I'm thrilled I found your Gallery while I was doing a search on the Ruppell's Griffon Vulture. What an awesome photo! When that bird flies overtop of you, it leaves a shadow and scares the dookie out of you. Having experienced that once, I can almost feel that energy in that particular photo. I own a yahoo group called Link of the Day which spotlights different species of birds and aspects of aviculture. I'm going to showcase your gallery to the members for their enjoyment as well. Thanks for sharing these birds from your viewpoint. :) Christine

Patrice		26-May-2004 19:00
Thank you for a beautiful site as well as one where you can view the birds by sight instead of having to tediously wade through written descriptions of birds you do not know. I did not find the bird I was looking for, but I thoroughly enjoyed your beautiful photos. You are a talented nature photographer!

Hi Doug, Wonderful pictures! Your birds have high quality and certainly gave me happiness looking at them. Thanks!

Doug J		23-Apr-2004 13:02
Ben, I'm glad you enjoyed the bird images. Most of these were taken with the Canon 70-200 2.8L IS, of these the majority were with the Canon 1.4x TC and some with the 2.0x TC.

Guest		23-Apr-2004 05:42
Wonderful pictures. Enjoyed them. Did you take all those bird pictures with th 70-200mm f2.8 IS and converter? excellent quality. Regards, Ben benteoh@comcen.com.au

The single salmon crested cockatoo is better known as a Moluccan Cockatoo.In the second picture, the bird on the right is the Moluccan whilst the one on the left looks like a Bare-Eyed Cockatoo or "Little Corella" as they have previously been known. The next pic, titled "Goffin Cockatoo" looks like either a Bare-Eyed Cockatoo or a Slender-Billed Corella. The pictures are wonderful though, I especially loved the Macaw and bird of prey photo's.

Sabra		01-Mar-2004 22:17
These pictures are excellent references for an exotic mural I am doing! Thank you very much!

steve		22-Feb-2004 13:32
Hi Doug, I hadn't noticed it before but your Oriolus auratus is really Oriolus chinensis (Black-naped Oriole). Hope you're getting along well in China. Drop me a line!

Guest		14-Feb-2004 19:51
these pictures are really good! they are very high quality.

Brian		06-Feb-2004 21:54
Your photo of a changeable hawk-eagle appears to be that of a vulture???

Mary		13-Jan-2004 14:01
Yours is a wonderful collection of beautiful photos of stunning birds. Thanks so much for sharing them with the rest of the world.

Guest		04-Dec-2003 11:33
Great pictures! - anyone fancy stopping by my site and identifying some birds for me?

Guest		30-Nov-2003 17:34
Dear Dough, Thank you for the wonderful pics. They are a treasure trove for Bird lovers and virtual trip to Singapore to me. My family have visited Singapore three times and we always take the kids to Jurong. Next time I am in Singapore, I will surely look you up. Thanks also for your e-mails to me helping me with my Lens purchase decisions. Vivek

Doug J		20-Nov-2003 05:26
Hi Judy, Thanks for the great poem, a nice tribute at this time of year. If only the Cassowary knew what he was missing come Thanksgiving! Perhaps it does, that’s why it appears to be so relaxed. The Jurong Bird park is a must see if you are that part of Asia and enjoy birds. The Waterfall Aviary is immense and specializes in African and South American birds. The South East Asian Aviary focuses on SEA and there is a new aviary scheduled for opening at the end of the year. I took those during the last 6 months of my residency in Singapore, they represent 8-10 trips to the Bird Park. If you like these, please visit my photo friend’s Singapore bird gallery:http://www.pbase.com/r53lanc

I am trying to convince a friend to travel with me to Irian Jaya (West Papua) but if I get a positive response we will HAVE to stop in Singapore and see these wonderful birds. You must have photographed them over a period of time. To have done all this in one visit would have been exhausting. I can't stop coming back to see them over and over. The "stretching" bee-eater just makes me swoon. And I wrote a Thanksgiving poem about your cassowary: The turkey is a noble bird. Not so, the cassowary. He doesn't go with stuffing Nor white or red cranberry. YOU may think a turkey's mean. A cassowary's VERY. He'll whack you with his wattles Like a well-paid mercenary. So stick with turkey this year, folks, From his broad breast to his back. And if you get a feather-- It won't be blue or black. I'll be back for more of your great photos. Judy Foester

superbs photos! congratulations

Thanks for the comments, the Lesser Bird of Paradise gender & age helps. The Banded Pita has been rather controversial with several differing opinions.

Guest		01-Oct-2003 12:01
I forgot the last one: The Crowned Pigeon is a Victoria's Crowned Pigeon.

Sergio		17-Sep-2003 05:56
More birds, please! My Wife is biologist and she was delighted! Thanks, Doug.

Doug J		06-Sep-2003 00:51
Thanks Steve, I've updated as appropriate. - Doug

Steve		02-Sep-2003 11:16
Had a better look at your beautiful pix. Your Spot-bellied Tree Duck is another bird called Ringed Teal, Callonetta leucophrys. The Aru Giant Kingfisher is better named Spangled Kookaburra, Dacelo tyro. Contact me for the White-tailed Sea-Eagle pic.

Steve Pryor		01-Sep-2003 08:06
Doug, Nice Pix. The Gonolek is Common Gonolek (Laniarius barbarus).

Bev Willis		30-Aug-2003 23:44
Your photos are just magnificent. I am awed by the many birds, colors, feathers, shapes, and on and on. God is such an artist and you are certainly a wonderful photographer. So good you share these beautiful birds photos. I watercolor and I love bright colors and all colors and your birds certainly gave me happiness looking at them. Bless you. Bev. Willis
