Amazing bird - does look like the test pilot for a few species - "hey, let's try this!", said the Architect of the Universe.

Mmmmm..... what a beautiful and unusual looking bird that is Stanley.

You've taken a super picture of him too - very well done my friend.

I think this is a clearer picture than the current subspecies image - so I'll change it for your one shortly. Many thanks laddie.
