Sitting.  Getting too old and stiff to be lying down...afraid I couldn't get up.

Dean, excellent details, can count every feather, good head angle too. Pleasingly plump curves the bird makes.

A cool bird for sure. Love the plumage patterns on this species. Detail and sharpness look good.
You cannot save time, you can only spend it wisely, or perhaps, freeze a moment of it forever in a photograph
