Nice image, wish you had got it in open

The focus on the KF is nice, the out of focus elements don't distract much. Nice shot. Is this KF ever found in the open? Because all my sightings of this species have been in situations like this, I have never seen it in a clearing...
I have seen them out in the open, perched on a thick electric wire, looking intently at the roadside canal. Have the pictures but wouldn't consider posting because of the artificial perch.Quote:

An artifical perch is good to avoid, but cant help that in some cases. I would surely like to see the photographs, do post.Quote:

The angle is steep and the vegetation is dense. Light levels appear to be low. Increasing the colour temperature during processing will result in the highlights getting burnt.
