This group of sulphur crested cockatoos were enjoying the acorns on the banks of the lake until a passer-by spooked them. They are very majestic,but raucous birds!
@leighj yes, actually I did have to stalk them through the trees! Stalking practice always comed in handy! I walked up a small rise and they were at my head height as they took off.
@loopy12 It is so tricky changing lenses after so long - I think I need to relax & learn to trust the moment a little more.... and hopefully learn how to quickly grab a balance between composition & motion.
