I have done really well this year with scarce birds =). A grey phal. turned up on my fav. patch, so I rushed down to see it. It kept so close to the edge of the lagoon, you couldnt see it as the edge is covered by a wire fence and reeds. After getting a few ok shots, I waited by a big gap in the reeds - sure enough it payed off, and actually came under the fence into the channel by the path! =) it did this a couple of times, and on the last, I could almost touch it!
Hope you like it,
A very jammy Steve.
