Image captured in overcast weather on the West Coast close to a small fishing village called Port Nolloth early in the morning on the first day of this year.
I went for a walk in the desert dunes close to town. I was able to to get reasonably close and capture a few images, some on this persh low to the ground and a few on a low bush. This image had me creeping on all fours to get close and a better angle.This bird was free and wild.
I hope I have as much luck for the remainder of the year.
