CommentAn immature bird (note the gape) on the rock that covers the water outlet on my birdbath. There were maybe half a dozen of them and they came in for a drink, not a bath. I hadn't noticed them on my birdbath before this but they are reasonably common here. I see a mass migration of them, in their thousands, with them flying overhead over a period of a week or two each spring and autumn. I'd expect the autumn migration east to start in the coming month.
EquipmentCanon 700D with 100-400mm handheld at 400mm
1/125 sec, f8, ISO 800.
Initially processed in Canon DPP 4 to crop, adjust exposure and lighting and perform noise reduction on bird. A 16 bit TIFF file was created from the RAW DPP image and finished in PSE (Adobe Photoshop Elements v9) where the background was noise reduced and the main subject sharpened.
LocationKambah, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory
