Got this about two years ago here in Sydney. Saw a group of Fairy Martins collecting mud using their beaks from a little puddle by the road. They use the mud to build their nests. Came the next morning, placed my hide and tried to get them in flight but failed miserably. Luckily got this and another image I was quite happy with.
Ofer - Interesting behavior with great detail and low pov. I like the mud on the bill and the slight twist to give you a nice HA.

agree with Rachel,and that magic Australian light,nice one.
Great low angle, details and colors. Love the story behind it. What amazing creatures birds are when you see what they are able to build. TFS
Hi Ofer,
I like the behavior captured here.
what caught my eye the most was the superb IQ of this shot, especially the head.
Great low POV and HA.
