Pete sighted Harmony in a different tree to usual this afternoon. Pete, his wife and I went scrambling down the embankment to have a closer look. It wasn't until I downloaded the photos that I saw that Harmony had obviously been in the water. It wasn't the least bit perturbed by our presence and we remain convinced that these birds quickly get to recognize the regulars. Not surprising, really, when you consider the sophistication of their eyesight and their awareness of their environment.

In this shot, Harmony was actually so close it couldn't be fitted into the frame and we had to move back several times before the entire bird could be captured in the viewfinder.
