It was cold on the banks of the Zambezi, but I wanted photos of the dawn above the Victoria Falls. This little guy was cold too! So were his brothers and sisters!
Since I don’t have the greatest zoom on my camera, I snuck up – snapping pics at every step…he wasn’t fooled…
Then he worked me out…”Photographer…no sweat!”
He does look a bit ruffled at your presence, but then decides you are harmless.
Yes – he bobbed up and down several times and I was lucky with the backlighting
Definitely got his winter coat on and at beady eye in your direction đŸ™‚
I’m very proud of this series…birds are SO hard to capture on film – without a big zoom – you need to creep right up on them
