CommentThe branches on the tree where this bird was perched kept swaying in front of the bird, at times obscuring the bird or casting shadows . The bird was very obliging and sat on the perch until I managed to take a few images with reasonably good light. I decided to include the branches in the composition, giving a little of the Australian bush to the image
