Good for you Alex, anytime you find one of these guys you've done well and you topped it with a great shot.

Excellent - a beautiful bird which is not easy to find in the open.

Nice shot of a beautiful bird. Never seen one in the wild. They look a lot like the Australian swamp hen(aka pukeko in NZ).

They are very similar cousins.
