Wow, I think that's brilliant. Equipment used?

I must say, you Aussies have some amazing birds down there, I'm a bit jealous!

Very nice Waussie. I came across one of these a couple of weeks ago on my lunch break walk. I have never seen one before so you can imagine the 'blood was pumpin' as I was trying to get some shots. Best I got was one of its back. Have been to the same spot on several occasions since but to no avail yet. I'm envious.

Dunno if this will help but I have found they do tend to visit the same spots, often in the company of other birds especially silvereyes.

Hi,
sharp with good colors, IMHO a lower angle would have worked well.
Regards,
