Photo of the day (POD) High speed landing! 28th August 2008

Late for dinner as usual this little bird holds no fear. I'm not sure
how fast she lands but it's considerably faster than her siblings!

The call them a "laughing Jackass". Australian Kookaburras always seem
to be around to laugh when you stub your toe or fall over in the bush.

Nice shot! Get rid of the fence and it would be almost perfect.
Shall I e-mail you a few of my creamy bokeh backgrounds that I use on
all my pics?

Nice shot. To bad it was at such a slow shutter speed. Hope you can
capture her again in more day light.

Nice color, contrast very good for the time of day. DOF is very good.

Well done Douglas. Keep at it.Love to see more.
