Where's Waldo?....that is what I thought about as I was searching for the bird. Before I found him, I was thinking that you were pranking us and there wasn't a bird at all.

Nice and interesting image.

Thanks! That camouflage behavior always amazes me. Here's one after it moved into the open.

Took me a while, but finally I saw it in the first pic. Amazing.

Now THAT is what you call camouflage - very well seen and taken

Thanks! I watched the bird moving in and out of the vegetation for about ten minutes to get that shot. Tricky to get one just short of invisible.

That camouflage is amazing. Took a while to see him. Great capture and well done to you to be able to get that shot.

I hope everyone enjoyed the challenge. It's easy to see once you've found it, so I wasn't sure how challenging it would actually be on a first viewing.
