Dittos on this shot, John! And all your remaining photos are beautifully photographed. To many to comment on individually.

Curious on your focal length

600mm on a DX sensor making it roughly equivalent to 900mm. And I cropped it to about 60% in PP.
I was very close to the bird, after slowly creeping closer I eventually got about 3 metres away.
