Oh gawd... you fooled me yet again - I thought it was a photograph!

Excellent work Spizaetos.

I thought it was a photo as well, and a very scenic one. That's a stunning lifelike painting of this pair! European Roller is a very beautiful species, but unfortunately it's quickly declining at the northern extremes of its range, including throughout most of Poland.
