Excellent eye contact JP! If the bird is alert to your presence, it's unfazed by it. Lovely colours too, great shot.

All the "Brahminy" birds seem to be attractive!!

A super picture you've taken of this Starling Jp - thanks so much for showing him to us lad.
 
S/he looks a bit angry from that angle. "Did I say you could take my photograph? It'd better be a good one!" Luckily, it is ;)
