The Mill Lakes Park | Exploring Bird Photography Locations in South East Queensland

Join me for bird photography at The Mill Lakes Park in Petrie, Queensland. Across several early morning visits, I found an amazing variety of Australian birds around the lakes, along the walking paths and beside the North Pine River. From waterbirds and fairy-wrens to raptors, bee-eaters and an unexpected Azure Kingfisher, there always seemed to be something else to find. These were the kind of mornings where time seemed to disappear - watching, listening and enjoying whatever appeared next. 📍 Location The Mills Lake Park, Petrie, Queensland, Australia 📷 Camera Gear Sony A7R VI Sony a6700 Sony FE 400–800mm F6.3–8 G OSS Sony FE 100–400mm F4.5–5.6 GM OSS Instagram: @oznaturephotos 00:00 When Time Disappears 00:25 Around the Lakes 01:21 A Morning Surprise 02:41 Into the Trees 03:59 Along the North Pine River 07:30 Back to the Lake 09:45 Photography Results
