YES YOU!

Here is another denizen of my front garden. This lone Crested Pigeon Ocyphaps lophotes moved in some time ago. I think he is having an identitiy crisis as he is acting more and more like the Rainbow Lorikeets.

Constructive feedback is your greatest compliment; caring enough to bother saying something ... thanks for visiting!

Wow, I can't believe that you have such an amazing inhabitant in your front yard. You should show him videos of his fellow species members to solve his identity crisis. :)

That is too funny (the way he is acting). Cool shot Helen!

If birds can be said to have "facial expressions" this one looks like he is stressed out to the max. Great capture.
