How handsome he is John!!! That yellow eyering shows up beautifully, doesn't it.

I often think it's a shame this bird isn't a 'mega rarity' - that combination of sunshine yellow eye-ring and bill with jet-black plumage would be top of every wish list! This gorgeous image proves my point perfectly John!
