Title: Black-faced Spoonbill (黑臉琵鷺) inflight
Post by Anguslau on Dec 14^th, 2004, 3:05pm

Apart from ducks, NSW is also a very good spot for observing and photographing BFS. The images below are three of the many images of a single sequence. Note that the appearance and feel of #1 is very different from the other two, without the blessing of warm morning light. ;)
