Graeme Chapman was recently awarded the 2004 John Hobbs Medal for services to amateur ornithology, having been involved with amateur bird groups (mainly Birds Australia, formerly the RAOU) since he first joined in 1956.  His pictures and articles have been published widely, particularly in Wingspan, the Birds Australia magazine and in the Readers Digest Complete Book of Australian Birds plus a myriad of other books and publications both in Australia and overseas. His continuing passion will be the birds of Australia and their behaviour, especially those that are peculiar to this great continent, the real Australian birds.

As usual with this feature, I will simply link to Graeme’s Gallery on his website to protect his copyright.
