The snakes for me also but a good set al-round, I think Skippy is praying they don't pick him for the next episode

The last one is my pick,it's like someone looking over your shoulder in a spooky way the wisteria?(is that what it is?) has a "waiting to pounce" look

Nice shots especially as it was a chance discovery

Now it is no secret that I am no bird expert but that one appears to have no wings whilst you mention it is flightless are there wings hiding under that hefty coat of fur like feathers? or maybe it is fur
There is a very small wing under those feathers.

[quote:3496ace15f="matwhittington"]Nice shots of an extraordinary subject. I like the second especially. How close did you get - he looks like he could be a pretty scary chap! (like a proper dinosaur...)

Probably about 3feet away, just used the sigma 17-70 as this was just a beach trip and the bird was unexpected

This magnificent flightless bird lives in the northern rainforest, the horn on the head is used for charging through the scrub and the feet are the weapons if needed

this one was on the beach looking for a feed as the rainforest is still in bad shape after the cyclone.

A protected bird in decline sad to say.
