I've had many days of 5-6 hours driving, plus a 7-8 hour hike on top of it. Guaranteed it's somewhere special, so no complaints or hesitation.
Thanks very much Neil. I was glad to get that picture it sort of made up for the 5 hours of driving I did that day.
Big nest and big bird. That's an awesome spotting, Brian.
Thanks for the kind words Zlatan and Mel!
What a superb photo
