I was very lucky today. A bellbird came to visit our garden. I see one here maybe once or twice a year. They tend to hang out closer to the hills, about 2km away. They're quite skittish and I've had the AF motor of my camera scare one off before. Today I kept my distance and managed to get a photo.

K10D, FA*400mm f/5.6.
