CommentI chose this image because of the behaviour of the brooding scrubwren and the cockoo. The size difference is amazing, and the scrubwren has to deposit the food so far into the cuckoo's throat. The image was taken in a very dull environment beside a well vegetated creek, and despite the high ISO required, I am pleased with the image quality.
