I managed to get my first shots of this species on Monday at one of the local lagoons.

These are big crops so they're not as good as I would have liked so I'm just sharing them as I've not seen many shots of this species posted here.

Bigma on Tripod with fill flash. ISO 400. Shots cropped to 25-40% of full frame.

Nice shots Stephen. Better than any I have. They just don't seem to come close enough for good pictures here either. :)
