When photographing wild birds in care, I have to be very conscious of not overwhelming them or desensitising them. Ideally, human contact is kept to a minimum so I work quickly, keep my distance and work within a small window of opportunity to correct the lighting or camera settings. The photographs that result are completely at the will of the individual bird. I then take the images home and devise a composition based around what glimpse of personality the bird offered to me that day.
