Re: spotted pardalote nest gathering. Fantastic capture with the nesting material. The angle also does nicely to show off those gorgeous patterns this species has on their back.

Re: spotted pardalote nest gathering. Gorgeous. Love the pose and the nesting material in his beak. He sure is a nicely-coloured specimen.

Re: spotted pardalote nest gathering. Fantastic Mikey, looks like you're on a roll at the moment. These guys make great subjects at this time of year with all their busy nesting activity. Captured really well, a little bit of fill flash might have helped with the lighting. Do you have an off camera flash

Re: spotted pardalote nest gathering. This is fabulous Mike! Love the pose and sharpness - the nesting material really makes the shot though. Not sold on the comp personally but still brilliant capture.
