This was taken on Sunday just North of Gawler in South Australia.
I was out with a friend birding when this little fella came out to play.

Very nice capture Kym and welcome to CinC from Victoria!
I love the rusty wire and fence post - really sets off the bird & background.
Well done.Last edited by Dave Humphries; 5th January 2011 at 01:36 PM.

You've nailed that one beautifully in terms of focus and sharpness. Spot-on. It works really well with the bird on top of that post and with the rusty wire ruinning through the frame at a good angle.

I do like bird photography and this is a gem. I like the shallow DOF and overall tone and composition of the image.

Beautiful capture. The drab look reminded me of this female blue wren I caught recently handheld with a 70-200 Canon f2.8.
