Windblown Pasture and Birdlife at Tungkillo, South Australia Patrick Prior

The orange and yellow tipped blades of grass sway gently in the wind as small bugs fly overhead. The grass having these beautiful colours signifies a large amount of moisture in the soil, most likely signalling a wet winter. The sheep paddock this patch of grass belongs to is located in the small town of Tungkillo in South Australia. The gum trees are a staple to South Australian countryside, likely thriving from the wet winter. While focusing solely on the grass and taking a moment to truly see even the smallest of blades, you can see the melody the wind creates in each moment. Despite the bird likely being a Sulpher-crested Cockatoo which typically journeys with larger groups, this bird flies alone, unbothered and mesmerising with each stroke of its wings. The bird's flight across the gum trees, a solitary venture as it peacefully glides in the air currents. With the sole focus being on the grass, even the smallest movements of different flying insects can be seen and appreciated.
