Beautiful detail what healthy looking bird vibrant colours, the ones I have seen around Ashbridges Bay seem so much darker...

Thanks for the comments.
Colin, the WTS  comes in two colour morphs, the white striped morph and tan striped morph, this one really stood out being a white stripe, there were a few tan striped with him and you really notice the differance between the two.
Denis, that`s interesting ,perhaps they do travel together or perhaps their patterns are very similar, they sure were hanging out together.
Terry, I was using a Canon ID Mark 1V with a 800mm lens.
