Fortunate enough to have a few of these come quite close while bottom fishing today. 1st photo is a juvenile
Discovered a new way to practice birds in flight (BIF) photography - throw them some fish entrails (hope woko doesn't read this, I know his thoughts on artificial feeding!!).

Too late, Dale!
It is a very striking bird, isn't it? What a beak. Nice shots!
Thanks, used to see them often, but since this challenge started been hard to find, but I've not been getting my feet wet either (limited time fishing) so they are probably still about
