Thanks Nick. There’s a long story which goes with this shot. Next time I’m in the area, we’ll get together for a drink and I’ll regale you with the details (there were 2 birds and there was a little dog and I’ll save the rest for later!!)
Phillip I have to say this was a gift – all I did was point the camera in the right direction at the right time, the light, the angle the pose were all incidental to whereever I was. I actually took this out of the window of our car.

Thanks Steve This was the first time I had ever seen one of these and so I was extra pleased to have been able to capture him so well.

Thanks Biggzie, Appreciate the comment. Always nice to hear from a fellow south easterner (even if I’m somewhat removed these days).
