As soon as I saw the thumbnail I thought that must be a silverbill LOL.

He's a beautiful one, isn't he Alok. A cracking picture my friend. Thanks.

Fabulous lighting showing its colors and silver bill nicely with great eye contact. I hope this cutie was careful with those dangerous looking thorns. Top-marks Alok & Renu! TFS!
