A scrapy individual indeed, but a great pose and a tough species to get close to around Sydney...

I know it's tough to make and you have done great, but small nit is that it's a little dark on my monitor.

I really like the pose. It looks like the focus is on the tail instead of the head?

The pose is very good and very good details, the head looks stange litle bit I suppose that this is because of the angle of shot,
where did you catch it?

All my birds' pictures were taken in nature.

Outsatanding bird and pose, Ofer. Wish for a bit more detail in the shadow - but that might just be me nit picking.

Neat pose. I wish there were more detail overall in the underside but I'm coming to understand this is a difficult shot to get regardless. I don't believe I've ever seen this species even in captivity. Well done!
