Hi Dave,

lovely shot of a bird I have as yet never seen but is on a very long list. :toast:

Beautiful background as well.

It would be nice if the bird had been looking a little more towards you, but this shot has so much going for it otherwise that I for one would still be proud to have taken it.

Nicely done Dave, nice clean bg obviously makes it stand out well and shows their lovely colours off to perfection.
