You made my day! A very unusual bird. I happened to see one while visiting my brother in Spain about 2 years ago and have been enamoured with them ever since. We don't have them in the U.S. I see that this was photographed in Russia. The sure seem to get around. Thank you so much. Great photo.

Does he keep his crest up or does it fold down like a road runner?
