Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread. Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

3 of these burdies have been nesting across the road from my brother in laws for almost 12 months and I finally managed to snap them 2day after I took of my computer tech's hat.

It is a very good image. It's giving you the 'eye' too.

Thanks all. These are quite elusive litle guys so I am fairly pleased with the result. I have had a bit more of a play in Photoshop and I think that it has come up slightly better. Have removed the dark leaf top right and the foil (bright strip) at both left.

Elusive is something that I have never thought of this bird. I remember that they used to nest on the edges of the fairway at the Cairns Golf Club. You could walk right up to them when they were sitting on their eggs, and they would not move.

When we were on the road last year we stayed a few nights in Airlie Beach. One night we woke up to what I thought were the sounds on two monkeys mating. Next morning I found the culprit next to a little creek adjacent to the amentities block. The werent too elusive there, had to walk pass them every time nature called!
Ben PS Maybe mine couldn't get away cause he only had one leg! 
It seems like I am one of the few that has trouble spotting these noisy blighters
