A big juvie (Purpureicephalus spurius)

An awkward angle of course, so not the greatest of pictures.

A great shot you have of this big youngster. A very colourful bird and nice to see Delia, well done.

The colors all blends well together. You did good to see them. It looks like they are having a talk about where to go for lunch, grin Delia
