What a stunning little bird. He/she was flitting around a family of Superb Fairy Wrens, I had never seen one before, so am quite excited... just wish the lighting was better at the time! :D

haha, believe me Jackie, there were plenty of 'foliage' rejects and blurred rejects. It was late afternoon and trying to balance lighting with such a quick little character was a challenge. I may have said a few whispered swear words along the way... ;-)
