    Decent photographs of this skulker don''t grow on trees, so I was over the moon to get this shot early one morning at a nearby bird sanctuary.
    I look forward to your comments and advice.

    Hi Richard,I do like the bird itself very much especially that red eye and also the way the bird is posed.Only little nit I have is that those green reeds in the background do look a bit strong and wondered how it would look with them toned down a little bit,just my take of course and a personal view.Nice job on what can be a difficult bird.

    Keith.

    Great find and an excellent image of this bird. Love the spotlight effect on the face and the looking back pose.
