nice job of framing this with only a 105mm. u must have been pretty close to him. too bad he got those branches coming out of his neck or this shot would have been perfect.

Excellent shot Lawrie, how on Earth did you get so close? My experience with these birds from years back is that they're quite nervous...

Hi Dave
Thanks for the comments
I crawled along the bank in the long grass right up to the bank edge and took a few shots
