Hi,

another bird from my trip to Queensland just before Christmas. I spend all morning without getting many images and then the sun came out, making the light way too harsh. I was about to pack up, when a small bank of clouds swooped in and allowed me to continue to shoot for another 20 minutes. At the same time, a cooperative pair of these little birds showed up and made it a successful morning after all :)

It's always great when a little luck comes your way but that aside this is a beauty of an image .... lovely pose and turn of the head and all in focus, sweet.
