you think that's bad - just ask the kingfisher photographers - the number of times they set everything up all ready and hidden for that little bird to appear - then the darn thing goes and lands on their flash or lens!

Oh my. The bird was sitting on the flash when it went off. It scared the crap out of the bird literally. LOL Hey at least it wipes off.

It's good luck!

This happened to me as well this evening, on my inbuilt flash!! How it missed me I'll never know ...
