Three brilliant images, Stanley ... awesome birds and shots ... tfs ...
 
That facet of this bird's name "Trainbearer, is most intriguing, Stanley.

Notwithstanding she is a pretty lass and has posed beautifully for you.

Splendid shot!
 
You have shown so well this interesting bird. Great composition.

Thank you for sharing,
