CommentThe hot, dry weather brings a sporadic selection of birds to my birdbath - some just for a drink and others to bathe. I've seen this tail-less scrubwren for about a month now. I'm not sure if it's immature or suffering a developmental defect as I'd have thought it wouldn't be tail-less for that long. Rather cute in a pathetic way.
EquipmentCanon 80D with EF 100-400mm Mark 2, handheld at 400mm
1/400 sec, f9, ISO 1600.
Initially processed in Canon DPP 4 to crop, adjust exposure and lighting and perform noise reduction. A 16 bit TIFF file was created from the RAW DPP image and finished in PSE (Adobe Photoshop Elements v9) where further noise reduction was applied to the main subject(s) using Neat Image plugin for PSE. Stronger noise reduction was applied to the remainder and the main subject sharpened after resizing for upload.
LocationKambah, Australian Capital Territory
