What a nice shot. I love the little "hill" that bird is standing on.

Old man this is about as nice of a frame as I have ever seen of a bustard. Love the pose and the Great Perch he is standing on. Beautiful colors, BG and details too. I only wish the nictitating membrane wasn't closed. Great job Clement
