Chantelle Polley, Tired Tawny (ANIMAL & NATURE 2022)

During a wildlife photography workshop run by bird photographer and wildlife carer, Angela Robertson-Buchanan, this captive Tawny Frogmouth sat sleepily on its log before opening its stunning orange eyes at the scent of a meal. Our small group of photographers were taught the skills and, more importantly, the ethics of capturing photos of wildlife.
