A common but graceful bird, dressed like a General in the Napolean age. Tricky to shoot due to its colour. This is a very sharp and well exposed image!
:eek!: Odd perch for a RWB indeed! But the picture looks great, very neat and detailed! :clap: :clap: And what a beautiful common bird he is! o Cheers!
