I have a heck of a time even seeing one of these birds, let alone take a great photo of on. Excellent. V

This is so outstanding! It is such a treat the way they try to pose as part of the scenery and your camera captured every detail. Great job!

Easily missed as it blends so well with the environment.
Nice shot, Tom.

Terrific capture Tom, they are not an easy bird to spot and frighten very quickly, well done isolating the bird in a difficult and busy background....
