Comment | The extensive reed fields at Tamar Island wetlands were alive on this day with the distinctive call of this elusive and well-camouflaged little bird. Getting a good view or photograph is a challenge however, as they rarely show themselves clearly, and usually only for seconds before they fly off and hide. This one obliged just long enough for a few images, but with the perch reed and others in the foreground and background waving randomly in a strong breeze, it was quite difficult to capture an unobstructed view. I wanted to get an image I could crop to show the way the bird blends into its environment - hopefully this one does the trick. | ||||||||||||||||||
