He's stunning Jim!!!

That's a great picture too, and I think is a clearer image than the one currently showing in The Opus, so I'll upload it there shortly.

Many thanks for sharing it with us lad.

Thank you everyone. He was a cooperative bird, at least at perch. Feeding on the Hibiscus flower, not so much. Very quick back and forth.
