What a wonderful find for you RKA!!! We hardly ever see pictures of this one coming in and it's 6 years since the last appeared in the Gallery.

A lovely bird it is too.

I see the one in The Opus has bluish upperparts, is that due to different light, or is your bird a juvenile/female perhaps?

Actually my bird is a typical adult male. The lighting in the opus picture seems a bit unusual.

Thanks for that RKA.

In that case, I think I'll switch the images to use your lovely picture. Many thanks my friend.
