Dang girl, this looks like a brilliant painting!

Such a beautiful image and photographed brilliantly. A beautiful bird g/f!
 
A wonderful setting to catch this beauty in Doux. A brilliant capture, well done.

Yes.... I agree with KC... it does look like a painting Doux!!!

That's a shame about his bill and hope he manages to feed and groom himself OK.

An excellent picture this my friend. Many thanks lassie.
