Valerie Macmichael, The Pinnacle & Galah (ANIMAL & NATURE 2023)

Spotted an icon of a bird on the Pinnacle at Nambung National Park WA, and lucky for me I was able to get very very close. My situation was a 14-24mm wide angle lens as my bigger lenses were no where near me, so stealth mode needed to get close. I felt lucky to get multiple shots of this very friendly Galah.
