Such gorgeous colours! And with the “blue head”, different from the ones we mostly get in Britain, which makes it especially interesting. A superb capture JJ.
 
Lucky you. Despite the bad weather a wonderful capture of this flava iberiae. Lovely pose with eye contact. The weather here wasn´t good at all past week. Plenty of rain with high water levels in our rivers et cetera.
