At the bottom of a deep dark gully in the rainforest of Queensland.
A quiet confiding bird like its Yellow Robin cousin.

Always a challenge to photograph in the rain forest. Outstanding detail and a nice clean shot of this bird-well captured and presented Rob. Cheers

Such a sweet looking bird! Nice details and I really like the lichens on the perch. Sharon

Love the colors and the narrow dof, looks like a secretive little bird.

The growth on the branches here add to the feeling of a secluded, quite deep forest. Great capture.

This guy looks kind of sad and lonely. Beautiful presentation.

Excellent. Nice detail and very sharp at 1/50. Bird looks great and I like the DOF effect on the perch. Well done, Rob.

Excellent shot for iso 3200 and 1/50 sec. I really like your choice of compositions and this one really leads you right to the bird. Well done Rob.

Nice looking bird. I like the "foresty" feel of this image. Great sharpness, especially for 1/50s.
