Finally got out today after many weeks with work commitments.
Buff-rumped Thornbills are small birds found in open forest and woodlands in eastern Australia. They usually get about in small 'tinkling' groups

I like your cute little bird very much! Excellent details. The vegetation adds interest, and the gorgeous bg helps make the bird stand out so nicely.

Wonderful shot from sharpness to background, to the catch light in his eye.
