Since we recently reignited our “What Bird Is This?” series, we’ve decided to keep the momentum going with a monthly challenge whenever a good (or delightfully bad) photo opportunity arises.
For February’s instalment, we have a subject that should be relatively easy—especially if you’ve spent any time in the bush lately. They seem to be popping up everywhere at the moment! However, between the tricky backlighting and the fact that this individual is facing away from the lens, we’re hoping to give even the seasoned birders a moment of hesitation.
While many birds in its family prefer to skulk in the shadows of thickets, this bird is a dedicated fan of the open floor. If you spot a medium-sized bird standing bolt upright on a game path, road, or camp lawn, looking like it’s trying to win a “Best Posture” award, you’re likely on the right track.
We will reveal the answer next week.
Good luck.
