Magellanic Snipe
Sea Lion Island, Falkland Islands I have never been able to get close enough to a snipe at home to get a decent shot. Usually I dont even see the bird until it is flying away. I found several snipes on Sea Lion Island and this was the least camoflauged and I was able to get close enough for this portrait by belly crawling slowly toward the bird. One of the great things about photographing in the Falklands is the lack of fear of humans by most species, including the lbbs (little bitty birds). Canon EOS3 with 100-400IS handheld, Provia 100F Cheryl Ertelt
