 White-browed Scrub-wren (Sericornis frontalis)  I have found these Scrubwrens a very tough bird to photograph and have tended to try in rainforest/forest. Today i went to the Oxley Common in Brisbane and set myself up in a more open woodland where they are found and waited for them to present. In the end I was happy to get my best yet images of this active little bird. Taken with EOS 40D and 100-400mm IS USM lens at 1/100 Ap F/5.6 400ISO at 390mm Comments, critiques and reposts welcome regards David Taylor
