Pheewh!!! How lovely to see you still have some pictures from Africa Charles!!;)

What a lovely picture you've taken of this magnificent guy (I think he may be a a juvenile? What do you think?)

Excellent work finding him too my friend, we don't have too many pictures of this species in the Gallery.
 
Dear Delia, I agree with you that it is a juvenile bird, but still already impressive.

Hi again Charles - I'm glad you think it is a juvenile as well, as we don't have one in The Opus.

I'll upload this picture to the article shortly.

Many thanks for sharing him with us my friend.
