A walk in the gardens

I joined the local photographic society for a walk in the botanic gardens this morning for the first time. They were a lovely group of people and I even got some nice bird shots!
This is a female or juvenile male satin bower bird. As it was against an essentially white sky it was easy to drop in a nicer background for an arty look.
