before the light comes

the Meyer's parrot (poicephalus meyeri) is uncommon in southern africa except a few areas in botswana.i tried to catch this bird in tuli block close to a waterhole.they come to drink at morning and later disappear in to the bush.the parrots came but too early,just before the light.

you can see the sunlight with the bird still in to the shade.quite complicate for the feather quality but a nice effect in the background.
