Well now, that is very strange Pajarito - I was sure I'd commented on this great picture yesterday but don't know where it went LOL.

This is a first for the Gallery and I've added it to the Opus article. Many thanks.
 
Happy to oblige. This bird was a "regular" under the big fruit feeder that is set up outside the Arenal Observatory dining room every morning. You can see the watermelon seeds and scraps around the bird's feet.
