These landed right next to me (4m) and just sat there so relaxed.

Very nice Isac. Good clear colour and detail. -
nice kooka images. first is my fav here with the better background. wondering if a step to the right could have avoided the bright bits too
side profile on the beaks works better with long beaked birds like this too
head on you almost need to focus stack if you are close to them due to DOF issues.
funny in and around sydney I used to get dozens of kookas.
seen probably less than half dozen on here. and photographed 2
good workStephen Davey. Nikon ShooterComment

Cheers Alan. I don't think I've ever been this close to them, so I'm happy with the results.Originally posted by wigz View Post
Thanks Stephen. They make good subjects when they cooperate and just sit there on a branch. I suppose I could have sharpened up the beak for the front on shot. I was just entertained by it looking straight at me so the focus was on the eyes.Originally posted by avkomp View Post
I've played with focus stacking but not my thing. To get it perfect you need a tripod and that's a bit tricky for me when it comes to birds.I Shoot A Canon

These are my most favourite bird on the planet. This just is a bird I love to get shots of and of late around home they are becoming a little harder to get or I am just looking in the wrong places.
I like these shot and have noting more to say than well done on the lot of these shots of the great Kookaburra.Comment
