Mmmm.... I was so hoping you'd upload him here too Chris.

That really is a great picture and you sure nailed the focusing with that cryptic plumage.

Very well done lad.

Wow! Cracking good shot of this strange bird. You've done a very good job with the lighting, preserving detail in the parts which are in shadow. Wonderful image Chris.
