Thanks guys. The hawk is a real ham in front of the camera thats for sure.

Anthony, I won't be making the Aquarium trip unfortunately. I've done the behind the scenes tour before but I'm sorry I'll be missing out on meeting some new people

Danny, I don't know what kind of camera you're using by my nikon has a macro setting on it. I can get within 3 cm (sometimes closer) of my subject. I have my camera set at 400 ISO and to be frank, I take about 20 shots to get one good one. Sometimes up to 60 shots. Perching fishes are always easy to catch on camera if you're at the ready. This little guy is easy to photograph but I think I only have one decent clear shot of my scopas tang and twin spot wrasse. My camera just isn't fast enough for them.
