[Mickoid (Michael)]

I was trying to get a shot of some Fairy Wrens and was literally crawling through the undergrowth to hide from them when I came to a clearing near a small creeklet. This little fellow came to within 2 metres of me to make a burrow in the soft soil for somewhere safe to lay their eggs. Normally a Tree Canopy bird, these small birds are often heard but not seen, I was lucky to be in a position at the right time of day to take this shot. Fujifilm XT100 with a Tamron 500mm mirror lens.
