Very hard to get these little fellas out in the open. I waited 4 hours for this shot..

Cheers Reverend.

Thats a beauty. Patience has rewarded you. Very sharp focus to me. Were you concealed in a hide? Can you tell me the lens and camera body used and how far away the bird was. From the look of its eye, it sure knows your'e there. Mark

Fantastic image of what can be a very elusive little bird.
You would have to be very pleased with the result Rev.
Cheers Phil

Well worth it. Great shot.

[REVEREND (Raymond)]

Thanks everyone.
No hide Mark. I position my 4x4 so I could sit quietly near the front wheel. 400 x 5.6 L prime lens on a 7D. I was , maybe 4mtrs from the bird.
Cheers Reverend
