Another Bird

Photo Information

The Bearded Booby. Don't know if that's the correct title, but it fits.
Takumar 135mm, f2.5. The Taiwanese one, which is widely considered the worst of the 135's, but I like mine.

Hi I like this shot a lot, I used to have one of these lenses and was always pleased with the results, the bird in the picture looks like a Cattle Egret where did you take it.

Thanks for the comments. I'd like to say I trekked through rugged bush for three days to get this shot, but it's actually at Blackbutt Nature Reserve, in Newcastle, Australia.
