Loved all the bird shots. You forgot to mention the welcome swallows on the fence! The juvenile apostlebird playing with the grass was my favourite.

@paulgear Ah yes, indeed I did neglect to mention them ... that has now been rectified :-)

Wonderful. It's almost like Koyaanisqatsi in reverse: instead of seeing life out of balance and technology as a stark contrast to nature, the two intertwine and integrate in harmony here.
I particularly loved the bit starting at 0:47, with the telescopes turning towards the sun like giant flowers. That was a brilliant, touching thing to behold.
Thank you.

@Schneelocke LOL, that's a great comparison :-) I enjoy astronomy and just as equally the wildlife around and in the facility ... and they do intertwine quite harmoniously ... well, ahem, apart from the odd snake in the toilet, or the mice/cockatoos biting into cables ;-) I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it!
