You lookin at me?
Took this last month when I was at the Omaha Zoo for the day... very cooperative guy, kept showing off his plumage and stayed in the same area, let me get within 20-30feet wihtout running off...

nice focus on the eye. I like the pose you got. He looks as ornery as the ones that have been attacking folks at the Washington Park Zoo lately (oh wait it's the Oregon Zoo now! :rolleyes: )

Anyway, I won't comment on the technicals, as I"m looking at a really crappy LCD at the moment.

Thanks Curtis, yeah he certainly liked showing off, but wasnt mean at all... very friendly, might have let me touch him, if I slowly approached and let him get used to me.
