Himalayas - 435 (Cissa chinensis)

Himalayas - 435

Here's another image
of this color-package ...

... to brighten up the
frigid winter ...

A beauty that has
suffered abuse ... and
confinement to cage
for a long time ...
... and the ordeal
is not over yet ...

They tend to lose green
color and become blue
when confined to a
cage ...

We could record its
wonderful call ... though
its display is currently
restricted for reasons
stated above ... I'm
adding it to the Opus
Article for record ...

One can view the green
wonder bathing in a
Himalayan Stream
in a brief video-clip ...
