Post Striated Fieldwren (Calamanthus fuliginosus)
Yes, I know, another Striated field-wren. Last one for ages I promise.

Taken yesterday in similar lighting conditions to what Paul & Jan contended with. I was actually surprised to see Silvereyes on the salt-marsh and was stalking them when this guy pops up and would not leave me alone. :roll:

40D, 300 f/2.8 + 2.0 TC. ISO 400, 1/200, f/8.0, +2/3 EC, tripod.
ACR ~ minor tweaks, PS targeted smart sharpen.

Superbly captured, Geoff !! Definition, feather detail, pose and vegetation all functioning cohesively . Extremely well done.
Best regards
