Yes, she was a retired veterinarian, and she was in Wanniassa, down near Erindale.

I am trying to recall, I don’t know of her in respect of any wheelchair or photography but I suspect I visited her a few times, I don’t know for sure about 15 years ago and she lived in Wanniassa and her work role was something in veterinary science. Is that correct?

Margaret passed away Jan 13.

Some members will remember her stunning shots of some of the birds of Callum Brae, especially of the Nankeen Kestrels. She was instantly recognisable, using a wheelchair to get her heavy camera to the right spot, then sitting under a tarp waiting patiently for the right shot. My favourite memory is the day I had a juvenile sea-eagle fly over my home in Wanniassa - a few moments later Margaret (also in Wanniassa), took a photo as it passed over her place.
