I was thrilled to stumble upon several newly hatched Red-capped Plover chicks scurrying around Buffalo Creek in Darwin, closely following their parents.

Another one that I spotted from being down for a different capture. From the angle I was walking, this guy was behind the stump. This was a 41 image stack, actually 2 x 20 plus a single test image. I know the stacking sounds weird but I just couldn't tell if that thin back valance (cap edge) was captured clearly so I took more images. The extra one was to prefocus my first stack set.
