Satin Bower Bird (Female)
Lens: HD PENTAX-D FA 150-450mm F4.5-5.6 ED DC AW Camera: Pentax K3 iii Photo Location: Bunya Mountains Queensland ISO: 6400 Shutter Speed: 1/1000s Aperture: F7.1 
Posted By: K2 to K50, 04-24-2023, 11:14 PM

The sky had clouded over, the bird was deep under a layer of foliage, I could barely see it through the viewfinder! But the K3 iii and the 150-450mm D FA delivered! (With some help from Photolab 5 !!!)

Very nice capture. I like the inquisitive pose as if she wants to know what you are up to.

I don't think that I have ever heard that name or seen a photo of this bird. Very nice capture of this bird. I love the feather pattern. Thanks for sharing.

Nice shot. These birds tend to gravitate towards thick foliage, all my shots of them are obscured.
