Yours truly counting birds in the Pastures of Great Bustard from the Russian made UAZ 4×4 in February 2008.

Fox notes the albatross in her “soaking-wet notebook” and watches it circle and fly back into the masking glare. Fox does an excellent job balancing these three elements, keeping the emphasis on the birds.
