Thanks! Sometimes it pays to not be able to get level with the subject, you get a better reflection.

Horrible weather here at the moment - so silly settings time. Bit of NR with LR.

Don't ride off into the sunset feeling like the Lone Ranger, I feel the same way about my reddish egret shots, but I know it can't be helped when they're one of the few decent birds 'in the area' to photograph. BTW, that's a very nice pic, if you kept posting it I wouldn't care, it's that nice.

Baby Billy sticks his head out of his tree hollow nest to survey the big, wide world he's soon to become a part of. Sulphur-crested Cockatoo, Cacatua galerita, at Wattle Flat, Royal National Park, eastern Australia, December 2025.

Meanwhile, having just fed him, mummy looks on from a nearby branch, keeping a close eye on little Billy.

My dream subject

Pretty easy to see once you get there. Getting to Rausu is what takes some effort, as it is definitely off the beaten path.

It's very hard to shoot there. Eagles keep getting in the way and disturbing the subject.

Great Egret in the bushes.
