CommentWell camouflaged. The bird was in 2 m+ high Melaleucas next to a walking track along the coastal cliff tops. We saw probably the same bird in much the same location on the return trip an hour or so later and it was in no hurry to move away either time. Suspiciously, there were two very young fledglings almost next to the track some metres away. I couldn't be certain of the species but possibly young this bird's young - they had yellow edges on the primary wing feathers like an adult bird but little else to distinguish them. The fledglings were very young an looked like they'd have no chance of flying yet.
EquipmentCanon 80D with EF 100-400mm Mark 2, handheld at 400mm
1/250 sec, f 8, ISO 1000.
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 using Neat Image plugin for PSE. The background was noise reduced and the main subject sharpened.
LocationWalking track along coast about 1km north of Saltwater Creek Campground, New South Wales
