Very atmospheric shot !
Thank you for your comment.
It was an unexpected encounter when I was on my way leaving Mai Po Nature Reserve.  While walking on the access track with the AFCD Ranger's Office a few hundred metres ahead, I saw this bunting on the access track about 30 metres in front of me.  My XQD memory card was full and so I had to quickly delete some photos in order to take photos of this bunting.  After taking a few shots, I heard someone asked if I could let him pass as he had been waiting behind me for four minutes already.  Many thanks to the kindness of the gentleman, who patiently waited till I had taken shots of the bunting.
