Wouldn't want that on my feeder! Superb image Keith.....any idea why its called a Friar bird? Very different from the usual Xmas Robin. :toast: :toast:

All the best for 2012.

thought of you today when i was hpoing for a KF to land on a perch thinking Im too close, my 2 - 4 is only @ 300 but then i thought of you and how you always get things infront of you at 300 :biggrin: Detail and sharpness is top draw well done, impressive and slighlty evil looking bird. :toast: :toast:

BTW it didnt land the wind blew a gale i gave up went home and put the kettle on!!!
