He saw a reflection of himself in the lens and was putting on a hissing and arched up display to the 'other male'.

Bear, your bird photos of the last few days are magical.  As an expat from Canberra now living in Seattle - who doesn't get back to Australia often enough - it's great to see some old friends from the bush.  I can hear the currawongs and magpies calling.  In a previous post you said you live 3 hrs south of Sydney on the NSW coast.  I'll guess Ulladulla, but mainly because other NG folk will like to know there's a place with such a name.  As a kid we used to go on holidays to North Durras, which can't be far from you.

Keep posting, we're all enjoying these photos!  Cheers,  John

Thanks very much John, much appreciated. We are 20 minutes North of Ulladulla.

I shot Canon for 10 years and jumped ship when the D850 came out and I am loving the 200-500mm Nikkor lens!

Hoping to get over to Canberra next month for Floriade.
